A poem for the home |
Inside is certain the past will comfort the new within us.
All that light given shape by frames still deep in their own wood.
Friends heard and seen from kitchen pan to a front room chattering.
All spill out in footfall range to gather sundries and good folly.
A remote quietude wraps sleep, shrouds waking between birdsong and green.
Alone again the ancient hinges entice small solitudes to each and every.
Closed in can lift off under these lofted ceilings.
The future louvred to immensities waiting above and below.
Ruminant is a space underfoot filled with sturdy emptiness.
Overhead sacredness peaks above its domestic suggestions.
The trace of today revels in blank walls that shape for tomorrow.
Go on home, here before us still ever making.
