Where Love Is Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF

By the rosy cliffs of Devon on a green hill's crestA
I would build me a house as a swallow builds its nestA
I would curtain it with roses and the wind should breathe to meB
The sweetness of the roses and the saltness of the seaB
-
Where the Tuscan olives whiten in the hot blue dayC
I would hide me from the heat in a little hut of grayC
While the singing of the husbandman should scale my lattice greenD
From the golden rows of barley that the poppies blaze betweenD
-
Narrow is the street Dear and dingy are the wallsE
Wherein I wait your coming as the twilight fallsE
All day with dreams I gild the grime till at your step I startF
Ah Love my country in your arms my home upon your heartF
