From The North Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEDE

The northern woods are delicately sweetA
The lake is folded softly by the shoreB
But I am restless for the subway's roarB
The thunder and the hurrying of feetA
I try to sleep but still my eyelids beatA
Against the image of the tower that boreB
Me high aloft as if thru heaven's doorB
I watched the world from God's unshaken seatA
I would go back and breathe with quickened senseC
The tunnel's strong hot breath of powdered steelD
But at the ferries I should leave the tenseC
Dark air behind and I should mount and beE
One among many who are thrilled to feelD
The first keen sea breath from the open seaE
