I haven't seen that one, dusty. Still tryin' to figger it out.

Who's the author? I think I know.

Here's my take on houses, from 1980, when a friend built one herself.


UNFINISHED HOUSE

Centuries of trees
Took up earth and sun
A promise in my name

I wove their noble substance
Board on board
Into a cloak of shelter
Threads of my being
Just as surely caught
In the fabric

Yet

This house will be unfinished

Until

The life within shall honor the promise made
By centuries of trees
