Heimweh Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD

Far Off the lily statues stand white ranked in the garden at homeA
Would God they were shattered quickly the cattle would tread them out in the loamA
I wish the elder trees in flower could suddenly heave and burstB
The walls of the house and nettles puff out from the hearth at which I was nursedB
-
It stands so still in the hush composed of trees and inviolate peaceC
The home of my fathers the place that is mine my fate and my old increaseC
And now that the skies are falling the world is spouting in fountains of dirtD
I would give my soul for the homestead to fall with me go with me both in one hurtD
