This Old House

Look at this house The front door is open Like my heart is for you It’s foundation Is as strong as the love that I have for you The smoke from it’s chimney And the fire down below Is my heart burning for you soul The kitchen is where we shall eat As my heart hungers for your love The bathroom is for bathing Where the water you have given me Has cleansed my soul The bedroom is for sleeping But on this night our child Will be created here Blending us together This gift from above This Old house that we have Will be our home We will no longer be Lonely or alone For together we now are one Enjoying this old happy home.

I like the way you merged the house's physical features with the couple's spiritual union. And from my personal point of view, after the children, the house is the glue of so many marriages! Happy Holidays to you! ~ Gershon
