Wind In The Beechwood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGEFG| The glorying forest shakes and swings with glancing | A |
| Of boughs that dip and strain young slanting sprays | B |
| Beckon and shift like lissom creatures dancing | A |
| While the blown beechwood streams with drifting rays | B |
| Rooted in steadfast calm grey stems are seen | C |
| Like weather beaten masts the wood unfurled | D |
| Seems as a ship with crowding sails of green | C |
| That sweeps across the lonely billowing world | D |
| - | |
| O luminous and lovely Let your flowers | E |
| Your ageless squadroned wings your surge and gleam | F |
| Drown me in quivering brightness let me fade | G |
| In the warm rustling music of the hours | E |
| That guard your ancient wisdom till my dream | F |
| Moves with the chant and whisper of the glade | G |
