Phil Capitano Poet Monorhyme

HOME

				There’s a little brown log cabin
				Smothered by a blanket of white,
				Rich evergreens surround it,
				The porch a crystal sun highlights.
				Gray smoke billows from the chimney
				Then freezes at winter’s cold bite.
				The glimmer on the face of the window
				Blazes like a beaconing light.
				This dwelling is nestled in velvet
				Like the moon is caressed by the night
				And to see this cabin from a distance
				Is, indeed, a rewarding sight.
				But to know it’s the end of one’s journey
				Fills this man’s heart with delight.
