My Piney Wood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDDDD ADCDEDED FGFGADCD| I have a tiny piney wood | A |
| my trees are only fifty | B |
| Yet give me shade and solitude | C |
| For they are thick and thrifty | B |
| And every day to me they fling | D |
| With largess undenying | D |
| Fat cones to make my kettle sing | D |
| And keep my pan a frying | D |
| - | |
| Go buy yourself a piney wood | A |
| If you have gold for spending | D |
| Where you can dream in mellow mood | C |
| With peace and joy unending | D |
| Where you can cheerfully retreat | E |
| Beyond all churchly chiding | D |
| And make yourself a temple sweet | E |
| Of rapturous abiding | D |
| - | |
| Oh silence has a secret voice | F |
| That claims the soul for portal | G |
| And those who hear it may rejoice | F |
| Since they are more than mortal | G |
| So sitting in my piney wood | A |
| When soft the owl is winging | D |
| As still as Druid stone I brood | C |
| For hark the stars are singing | D |
