Renovation

What must happen after being Condemned.

would you have me now? asked
the ohhowcobbled
shanty trembling
walls of spit and wishes
carried on foundation
built with enthusiasm
if not skill using
window trim, finials,
drywall, paint and 
crown molding(allhail
rexnonpotentpeccare)
the footings are solid
and my builder meant well
just learned late
what is decorative
and what
is
structural
give us time
we will stand strong
blocks of being
replacing
sticks of doing


                                   please....

Oh, this is a masterpiece Bear! You are so quiet here now, and I never see when you have posted something new because of it. I'm glad I peeked in. This was perfect!

[Joel M Frye]

Thank you most kindly, LA. I'm posting most of what I write lately both here and on HP; just not writing much of late. Think that's about to change.

[LA Lorena]

OH? pm me.

[Joel M Frye]

~ wow... absolutely overwhelming, monsieur jewel... being a slow learner, i relate to this piece very intensely... you wrote my heart out infinitely poetically... i hope i get my second chance at love and life...

[Joel M Frye]

You are love and life, serah. It bursts out around even those who would eclipse you.
