Places Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB EFGFHF CIGIJI AGKDLD| Places I love come back to me like music | A |
| Hush me and heal me when I am very tired | B |
| I see the oak woods at Saxton's flaming | C |
| In a flare of crimson by the frost newly fired | B |
| And I am thirsty for the spring in the valley | D |
| As for a kiss ungiven and long desired | B |
| - | |
| I know a bright world of snowy hills at Boonton | E |
| A blue and white dazzling light on everything one sees | F |
| The ice covered branches of the hemlocks sparkle | G |
| Bending low and tinkling in the sharp thin breeze | F |
| And iridescent crystals fall and crackle on the snow crust | H |
| With the winter sun drawing cold blue shadows from the trees | F |
| - | |
| Violet now in veil on veil of evening | C |
| The hills across from Cromwell grow dreamy and far | I |
| A wood thrush is singing soft as a viol | G |
| In the heart of the hollow where the dark pools are | I |
| The primrose has opened her pale yellow flowers | J |
| And heaven is lighting star after star | I |
| - | |
| Places I love come back to me like music | A |
| Mid ocean midnight the waves buzz drowsily | G |
| In the ship's deep churning the eerie phosphorescence | K |
| Is like the souls of people who were drowned at sea | D |
| And I can hear a man's voice speaking hushed insistent | L |
| At midnight in mid ocean hour on hour to me | D |
