THE LITTLE HOUSE


With morning glory vine
About the door.
A little winding path
By friendly footsteps made,
Across the moor.
A little tree for shade
A patch OF clover,
Green in the summer sun
By winds swept over.
A little garden, gay
With flowers of yesterday,
Old-fashioned marigolds.
Bright Johnny -jump-ups
Wee shelves of shining things,
Fragile as fairies wings,
Plates. dishes, teacups.
Floors white as ocean foam,
Windows agleaming; a
This is the little home,
Built in my dreaming.
A little house built true
To stand the weather:
And you and I, love,
To dwell together.
