Storm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EFEFGGHis face was charged with beauty as a cloud | A |
With glimmering lightning When it shadowed me | B |
I shook and was uneasy as a tree | B |
That draws the brilliant danger tremulous bowed | A |
- | |
- | |
So must I tempt that face to loose its lightning | C |
Great gods whose beauty is death will laugh above | D |
Who made his beauty lovelier than love | D |
I shall be bright with their unearthly brightening | C |
- | |
- | |
And happier were it if my sap consume | E |
Glorious will shine the opening of my heart | F |
The land shall freshen that was under gloom | E |
What matter if all men cry aloud and start | F |
And women hide bleak faces in their shawl | G |
At those hilarious thunders of my fall | G |
