Heimweh Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDDFar off the lily statues stand white ranked in the garden at home | A |
Would God they were shattered quickly the cattle would tread them out in the loam | A |
I wish the elder trees in flower could suddenly heave and burst | B |
The walls of the house and nettles puff out from the hearth at which I was nursed | B |
- | |
It stands so still in the hush composed of trees and inviolate peace | C |
The home of my fathers the place that is mine my fate and my old increase | C |
And now that the skies are falling the world is spouting in fountains of dirt | D |
I would give my soul for the homestead to fall with me go with me both in one hurt | D |
