Flight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDC EFEFGHGHG

THE SONG BIRDS are they flown awayA
The song birds of the summer timeB
That sang their souls into the dayA
And set the laughing days to rhymeB
No catbird scatters through the hushC
The sparkling crystals of its songD
Within the woods no hermit thrushC
Trails an enchanted flute alongD
A sweet assertion of the hushC
-
All day the crows fly cawing pastE
The acorns drop the forests scowlF
At night I hear the bitter blastE
Hoot with the hooting of the owlF
The wild creeks freeze the ways are strewnG
With leaves that rot beneath the treeH
The bird that set its toil to tuneG
And made a home for melodyH
Lies dead beneath the death white moonG
