Ordered House

The walls are bare The floors are free of debris The laundry is put away The beds are perfectly quaffed ...ready for habitation Clothes are scattered 'round Dirty dishes in the sink Dusty trophies on the shelf Toys line the hallway ...ready for battle ahead The doors are locked The lights are on The water runs at will The internet entertains ...ready for usage The children have gathered The adults are adulting The tension pulls at choice The cables are strong and firm ...ready for communication The years pass quickly The aged wonder in pain The children run to repair The earth groans under the weight ...ready for transition RESTORATION REVEALS The ORDERED HOUSE Written by Trudy Schrader on 12-19-2022
