Rhyme Scheme: A BCDC EFGC HIJK LMNO PQRQ

A
-
I had been hungry all the YearsB
My Noon had Come to dineC
I trembling drew the Table nearD
And touched the Curious WineC
-
'Twas this on Tables I had seenE
When turning hungry HomeF
I looked in Windows for the WealthG
I could not hope for MineC
-
I did not know the ample BreadH
'Twas so unlike the CrumbI
The Birds and I had often sharedJ
In Nature's Dining RoomK
-
The Plenty hurt me 'twas so newL
Myself felt ill and oddM
As Berry of a Mountain BushN
Transplanted to a RoadO
-
Nor was I hungry so I foundP
That Hunger was a wayQ
Of Persons outside WindowsR
The Entering takes awayQ
