Craigo Woods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD AAAAAEAE BFBFGHGG| Craigo Woods wi' the splash o' the cauld rain beatin' | A |
| I' the back end o' the year | B |
| When the clouds hang laigh wi' the weicht o' their load o' greetin' | A |
| And the autumn wind's asteer | B |
| Ye may stand like gaists ye may fa' i' the blast that's cleft ye | C |
| To rot i' the chilly dew | D |
| But when will I mind on aucht since the day I left ye | C |
| Like I mind on you on you | D |

| Craigo Woods i' the licht o' September sleepin' | A |
| And the saft mist o' the morn | A |
| When the hairst climbs to yer feet an' the sound o' reapin' | A |
| Comes up frae the stookit corn | A |
| And the braw reid puddock stules are like jewels blinkin' | A |
| And the bramble happs ye baith | E |
| O what do I see i' the lang nicht lyin' an' thinkin' | A |
| As I see yer wraith yer wraith | E |
| - | |
| There's a road to a far aff land an' the land is yonder | B |
| Whaur a' men's hopes are set | F |
| We dinna ken foo lang we maun hae to wander | B |
| But we'll a' win to it yet | F |
| An' gin there's woods o' fir an' the licht atween them | G |
| I winna speir its name | H |
| But I'll lay me doon by the puddock stules when I've seen them | G |
| An' I'll cry I'm hame I'm hame | G |
