memories

by Peter Humphreys

by wave
lashed
shore
there is
a house
down
bracken waving
lane

beside
leaf silvered
trees
there
is a
house
by briar
blocked path

there is a
house
boarded
blind
and silent
made
a house
there is

alone
groaning
in the
autumn
wind
silent in
the summer
heat

dead
when
spring ground
wakens
in winter
memories
torn
apart

How this catches my imagination! I can't help but be fascinated by abandoned houses... I always wonder what stories they coud tell.

A wonderful picture you've painted for us, Peter!
