The Wood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGFG HIHI JKJK LMLN| Witch hazel dogwood and the maple here | A |
| And there the oak and hickory | B |
| Linn poplar and the beech tree far and near | C |
| As the eased eye can see | B |
| - | |
| Wild ginger wahoo with its wan balloons | D |
| And brakes of briers of a twilight green | E |
| And fox grapes plumed with summer and strung moons | D |
| Of mandrake flowers between | E |
| - | |
| Deep gold green ferns and mosses red and gray | F |
| Mats for what naked myth's white feet | G |
| And cool and calm a cascade far away | F |
| With even falling beat | G |
| - | |
| Old logs made sweet with death rough bits of bark | H |
| And tangled twig and knotted root | I |
| And sunshine splashes and great pools of dark | H |
| And many a wild bird's flute | I |
| - | |
| Here let me sit until the Indian Dusk | J |
| With copper colored feet comes down | K |
| Sowing the wildwood with star fire and musk | J |
| And shadows blue and brown | K |
| - | |
| Then side by side with some magician dream | L |
| To take the owlet haunted lane | M |
| Half roofed with vines led by a firefly gleam | L |
| That brings me home again | N |
