Voices Of The Air Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGHBut then there comes that moment rare | A |
When for no cause that I can find | B |
The little voices of the air | A |
Sound above all the sea and wind | B |

The sea and wind do then obey | C |
And sighing sighing double notes | D |
Of double basses content to play | C |
A droning chord for the little throats | D |

The little throats that sing and rise | E |
Up into the light with lovely ease | F |
And a kind of magical sweet surprise | E |
To hear and know themselves for these | F |

For these little voices the bee the fly | G |
The leaf that taps the pod that breaks | H |
The breeze on the grass tops bending by | G |
The shrill quick sound that insect makes | H |
