Murmurs

I love
to hear wind
come round the corner
of my house.
Finding old wood
creaking gently-
soothing softly,
it murmurs
as the frame braces
for the next blast
to come.
Night will happen
while I sleep
lightly,
so not to miss
a single word
my house has to say.



THE POET SPEAKS:

I've received many comments on MURMURS. It seems to evoke memories of an old favorite house in those who read it.  I am pleased to hear that for my intention was to do just that.  The old house is now but a memory, but the poem never fails to return to me that cozy moment of the writing.
