Mount Houvenkopf Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCD| Serene he stands with mist serenely crowned | A |
| And draws a cloak of trees about his breast | B |
| The thunder roars but cannot break his rest | B |
| And from his rugged face the tempests bound | A |
| He does not heed the angry lightning's wound | A |
| The raging blizzard is his harmless guest | B |
| And human life is but a passing jest | B |
| To him who sees Time spin the years around | A |
| - | |
| But fragile souls in skyey reaches find | C |
| High vantage points and view him from afar | D |
| How low he seems to the ascended mind | C |
| How brief he seems where all things endless are | D |
| This little playmate of the mighty wind | C |
| This young companion of an ancient star | D |
