Home Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDBEBEFF| O home however homely thoughts of thee | A |
| Can never fail to cheer the absent breast | B |
| How oft wild raptures have been felt by me | A |
| When back returning weary and distrest | B |
| How oft I've stood to see the chimney pour | C |
| Thick clouds of smoke in columns lightly blue | D |
| And close beneath the house leek's yellow flower | E |
| While fast approaching to a nearer view | D |
| These though they're trifles ever gave delight | B |
| E'en now they prompt me with a fond desire | E |
| Painting the evening group before my sight | B |
| Of friends and kindred seated round the fire | E |
| O Time how rapid did thy moments flow | F |
| That chang'd these scenes of joy to scenes of woe | F |
