No Room For Hate Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFF GHIJKL MMNNOO

We have room for the man with an honest dreamA
With his heart on fire and his eyes agleamA
We have room for the man with a purpose trueB
Who comes to our shores to start life anewB
But we haven't an inch of space for himC
Who comes to plot against life and limbC
-
We have room for the man who will learn our waysD
Who will stand by our Flag in its troubled daysD
We have room for the man who will till the soilE
Who will give his hands to a fair day's toilE
But we haven't an inch of space to spareF
For the breeder of hatred and black despairF
-
We have room for the man who will neighbor hereG
Who will keep his hands and his conscience clearH
We have room for the man who'll respect our lawsI
And pledge himself to our country's causeJ
But we haven't an inch of land to giveK
To the alien breed that will alien liveL
-
Against the vicious we bar the gateM
This is no breeding ground for hateM
This is the land of the brave and freeN
And such we pray it shall always beN
We have room for men who will love our flagO
But none for the friends of the scarlet ragO
