Seen In A Glass Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABB ACD EFG HIJ KDD LL MNO

Behind the tree behind the house behind the starsA
In the presence that I cannot seeB
Otherwise than as house and stars and treeB
-
Tree house and starsA
Extend to infinity within themselvesC
Into the mystery of the worldD
-
Where whirl the wheels of power whose pulse beatE
Out of nothing out of nightF
Leaves stones and firesG
-
The living tree whose maypole danceH
Of chromosome and nucleusI
Traces the maze of boughs and leavesJ
-
The standing house of stone that pouredK
In molten torrent when was hurledD
Out of chaos this great worldD
-
And suns whose kindling begins anewL
Or ends the course that tree house world move throughL
-
Upheld by being that I cannot knowM
In other form than stars and stones and treesN
Assume in nature s glass in nature s eyesO
