A Snug House

23 January 2010 A Snug House A snug house on the prairie Where family members return and urge to nestle Stoking intimacy has gone past timely reunion During pluvial and winter season, it withstands The pineal form of its roof Where nestlings kept and fed by their mother bird Also life-giving when getting sun-bathe its frame A time to harmonize to the swing of season’s best A place to revitalize strength after a snappy pace in work Pointless and aimless views settled in one decision As all are desolating and aging A promise is kept for going back again Hibernate in the coldness of the night A return engagement to activities in daylight Back and forth nailed its floor with footsteps By sunrise everyone is gone, alone again standing is the snug house
