Waxwings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABC DEF GHA AIA J

Four Tao philosophers as cedar waxwingsA
chat on a February berry bushB
in sun and I am oneC
-
Such merriment and such sobrietyD
the small wild fruit on the tall stalkE
was this not always my true styleF
-
Above an elegance of snow beneathG
a silk blue sky a brotherhood of fourH
birds Can you mistake usA
-
To sun to feast and to converseA
and all together for this I have abandonedI
all my other livesA
