In My House

The winter has been 
bleak and the grey 
clouds shed rain-tears, 
like a child missing their 
favourite toy; sounds of 
birds, those feathery 
seed and fly eaters, are 
outside the door, their 
chirps and arias ( like 
shadows from their 
wings) brush the
crumbling wall-plaster, 
flaking it onto the crooked 
furniture in my house
