THIS OLD HOUSE

 

This old house

With faded papered walls

And paint flaked and chipped

Rooms full of drafts

And murky shadowed light

Smelling of decay and neglect

And lifelong absence

The house needed something

No, the house wanted something

Amidst the cobwebs of yesterday

And the promise of tomorrow

The house wanted to be a home
