The Ceiling and the Wall
In one dark corner they met
It was a meeting they both will never regret
For the ceiling a little rough around the edges
was a shelter for the wall
And the wall was the support for the ceiling and all
Their endearment for each other was not without gains
for out of it came sunshine filled window panes
The ceiling buffeted the blows of the elements of life
While the wall stood the strain with joy
and sorrow of every day strife
