A Coign Of The Forest Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCABCABC DCEDFEDDE GHDGHDGHDThe hills hang woods around where green below | A |
Dark breezy boughs of beech trees mats the moss | B |
Crisp with the brittle hulls of last year's nuts | C |
The water hums one bar there and a glow | A |
Of gold lies steady where the trailers toss | B |
Red bugled blossoms and a rock abuts | C |
In spots the wild phlox and oxalis grow | A |
Where beech roots bulge the loam protrude across | B |
The grass grown road and roll it into ruts | C |
- | |
And where the sumach brakes grow dusk and dense | D |
Among the rocks great yellow violets | C |
Blue bells and wind flowers bloom the agaric | E |
In dampness crowds a Fungus thick intense | D |
With gold and crimson and wax white that sets | F |
The May apples along the terraced creek | E |
At bold defiance Where the old rail fence | D |
Divides the hollow there the bee bird whets | D |
His bill and there the elder hedge is thick | E |
- | |
No one can miss it for two cat birds nest | G |
Calling all morning in the trumpet vine | H |
And there at noon the pewee sits and floats | D |
A woodland welcome and his very best | G |
At eve the red bird sings as if to sign | H |
The record of its loveliness with notes | D |
At night the moon stoops over it to rest | G |
And unreluctant stars Where waters shine | H |
There runs a whisper as of wind swept oats | D |
