Winter Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEFDEWild clouds roll up slag dark and slaty gray | A |
And in the oaks the sere wind sobs and sighs | B |
Weird as a word a man before he dies | B |
Mutters beneath his breath yet fears to say | A |
The rain drives down and by each forest way | A |
Each dead leaf drips and murmurings arise | B |
As of fantastic footsteps one who flies | B |
Whispering the dim eidolon of the day | A |
- | |
Now is the wood a place where phantoms house | C |
Around each tree wan ghosts of flowers crowd | D |
And spectres of sweet weeds that once were fair | E |
Rustling and through the bleakness of bare boughs | F |
A voice is heard now low now stormy loud | D |
As if the ghosts of all the leaves were there | E |
