The Empty House Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCB DEDFCE GHGHIHApril will come to the quiet town | A |
That I left long ago | B |
Scattering primroses up and down | A |
Row upon happy row | B |
Oh little green lane will she come your way | C |
To a certain path I know | B |
- | |
April will pause by cottage and gate | D |
In the wild sweet evening rain | E |
Where the garden borders run brown and straight | D |
To coax them to bloom again | F |
Oh little sad garden that once was gay | C |
Must she call to you all in vain | E |
- | |
April will come to cottage and hill | G |
Laughing her lovers awake | H |
Oh little closed house so cold and still | G |
Will she find you for old joy's sake | H |
And leave one primrose beside your door | I |
Lest the heart of your garden break | H |
