Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHAIJK LMNOKAPQRQOBSCTOUVWWas there a wind | A |
Tap tap | B |
Night pads upon the snow | C |
with moccasined feet | D |
and it is still so still | E |
an eagle's feather | F |
might fall like a stone | G |
Could there have been a storm | H |
mad tossing golden mane on the neck of the wind | A |
tearing up the sky | I |
loose flapping like a tent | J |
about the ice capped stars | K |
- | |
Cool sheer and motionless | L |
the frosted pines | M |
are jeweled with a million flaming points | N |
that fling their beauty up in long white sheaves | O |
till they catch hands with stars | K |
Could there have been a wind | A |
that haled them by the hair | P |
and blinding | Q |
blue forked | R |
flowers of the lightning | Q |
in their leaves | O |
Tap tap | B |
slow ticking centuries | S |
Soft as bare feet upon the snow | C |
faint lulling as heard rain | T |
upon heaped leaves | O |
Silence | U |
builds her wall | V |
about a dream impaled | W |
