A Thrush In The Moonlight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDBBBIn came the moon and covered me with wonder | A |
Touched me and was near me and made me very still | B |
In came a rush of song like rain after thunder | A |
Pouring importunate on my window sill | B |
- | |
I lowered my head I hid it I would not see nor hear | C |
The birdsong had stricken me had brought the moon too near | D |
But when I dared to lift my head night began to fill | B |
With singing in the darkness And then the thrush grew still | B |
And the moon came in and silence on my window sill | B |
