The Birthplace Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHere further up the mountain slope | A |
Than there was every any hope | A |
My father built enclosed a spring | B |
Strung chains of wall round everything | B |
Subdued the growth of earth to grass | C |
And brought our various lives to pass | C |
A dozen girls and boys we were | D |
The mountain seemed to like the stir | D |
And made of us a little while | E |
With always something in her smile | E |
Today she wouldn't know our name | F |
No girl's of course has stayed the same | F |
The mountain pushed us off her knees | G |
And now her lap is full of trees | G |
