My Room Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGFHIHI JKJLJMJM| I think the things I own and love | A |
| Acquire a sense of me | B |
| That gives them value far above | A |
| The worth that others see | B |
| My chattels are of me a part | C |
| This chair on which I sit | D |
| Would break its overstuffed old heart | C |
| If I made junk of it | D |
| - | |
| To humble needs with which I live | E |
| My books my desk my bed | F |
| A personality I give | G |
| They'll lose when I am dead | F |
| Sometimes on entering my room | H |
| They look at me with fear | I |
| As if they had a sense of doom | H |
| Inevitably near | I |
| - | |
| Yet haply since they do not die | J |
| In them will linger on | K |
| Some of the spirit that was I | J |
| When I am gone | L |
| And maybe some sweet soul will sigh | J |
| And stroke with tender touch | M |
| The things I loved and even cry | J |
| A little not too much | M |
