A Discovery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACACACA

I thought your search was over So I thoughtA
But you are seeking still Yes even soB
Still seeking in mine own despite belowB
That which in Heaven alone is found unsoughtA
Still spending for that thing which is not boughtA
Then chase no more this shifting empty showB
Amen so bid a drowning man foregoB
The straw he clutches will he so be taughtA
You have a home where peace broods like a doveC
Screened from the weary world's loud discontentA
You have home here you wait for home aboveC
I must unlearn the pleasant ways I wentA
Must learn another hope another loveC
And sigh indeed for home in banishmentA
