The Heart's House Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGHFHIJKJMy heart is but a little house | A |
With room for only three or four | B |
And it was filled before you knocked | C |
Upon the door | B |
I longed to bid you come within | D |
I knew that I should love you well | E |
But if you came the rest must go | F |
Elsewhere to dwell | E |
For you would never be content | G |
With just a corner in my room | H |
Yea if you came the rest must go | F |
Into the gloom | H |
And so farewell O friend my friend | I |
Nay I could weep a little too | J |
But I shall only smile and say | K |
Farewell to you | J |
