In Port Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHGH| Out of the fires of the sunset come we again to our own | A |
| We have girdled the world in our sailing under many an orient star | B |
| Still to our battered canvas the scents of the spice gales cling | C |
| And our hearts are swelling within us as we cross the harbor bar | B |
| - | |
| Beyond are the dusky hills where the twilight hangs in the pine trees | D |
| Below are the lights of home where are watching the tender eyes | E |
| We have dreamed of on fretted seas in the hours of long night watches | F |
| Ever a beacon to us as we looked to the stranger skies | E |
| - | |
| Hark how the wind comes out of the haven's arms to greet us | G |
| Bringing with it the song that is sung on the ancient shore | H |
| Shipmates furl we our sails we have left the seas behind us | G |
| Gladly finding at last our homes and our loves once more | H |
