Where Love Is Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFFBy the rosy cliffs of Devon on a green hill's crest | A |
I would build me a house as a swallow builds its nest | A |
I would curtain it with roses and the wind should breathe to me | B |
The sweetness of the roses and the saltness of the sea | B |
- | |
Where the Tuscan olives whiten in the hot blue day | C |
I would hide me from the heat in a little hut of gray | C |
While the singing of the husbandman should scale my lattice green | D |
From the golden rows of barley that the poppies blaze between | D |
- | |
Narrow is the street Dear and dingy are the walls | E |
Wherein I wait your coming as the twilight falls | E |
All day with dreams I gild the grime till at your step I start | F |
Ah Love my country in your arms my home upon your heart | F |
