More than a House

 

More than a House

He painted her sewing room

a peach so sweet

she could taste it

as she quilted.

Her office smelt of his sweat

hugging the walls

under a sign

"two hearts become one."

He built her a bathroom

with a garden tub

beside a window

that flirted with stars.

He saved for her sunroom

and lingered behind doors

watching her bask

in wicker moonlight.

Her garden winked at the lawn

he mowed every Sunday

cutting his fingers

on blades.

Her front porch is where she sat

and dreamt of times past

sipping lemonade

and sunbeams.

It was more than a house

It was a love letter

he left

just for her.
