What is the rhyme scheme of the poem, The Writer?

“The Writer” is a free-verse poem, contrary to the majority of this poet’s body of work; this means it has no rigid poetic form, metre, or rhyme scheme. However, it is divided into 11 consistent tercets, or three-line stanzas, for a total of 33 lines. Moreover, this poetic structure creates a visual effect on the page; each tercet has a form of one short line, one longer line, and another short line. This gives the poem the imagery quality of waves on the sea — as well as the natural ebb and flow of artistic inspiration, as characterized by the first half of the poem. Although there is no formal rhyme scheme, the poet utilizes rhythmic verse that makes the poem run smoothly from one line into the next. These choices make this one of Wilbur’s most modern-style poems.
