To The House Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKL| I am heaping the bones of the old mother | A |
| To build us a hold against the host of the air | B |
| Granite the blood heat of her youth | C |
| Held molten in hot darkness against the heart | D |
| Hardened to temper under the feet | E |
| Of the ocean cavalry that are maned with snow | F |
| And march from the remotest west | G |
| This is the primitive rock here in the wet | H |
| Quarry under the shadow of waves | I |
| Whose hollows mouthed the dawn little house each stone | J |
| Baptized from that abysmal font | K |
| The sea and the secret earth gave bonds to affirm you | L |
