Kelly Deschler Poet Rhyme

A Place To Go

Hammer and nails
And pine and paint,
Made by hands ...
Earns no complaint 

A roof and walls
Not much more,
A hole in the wall
Is my front door 

Put there for me
... A place to go,
Just to get out of
The rain and snow 

Home sweet home 
In a rustic realm,
Hidden up and away
... In a shady elm

One safe haven ...
No matter what occurred, 
A place to go ...
For one small bird.

Daniel Henry Rodgers June 20, 2024 at 4:42 AM Dear Kelly, I truly loved this heartfelt poem! I liked the things such as simplicity of hammer, nails, and a hole in the wall. And yet it becomes a sanctuary, a rustic realm hidden in a shady elm. Beautifully captured! - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
