Some renovation-
wood beams that can breathe easy
no clothes for them now
/ / /
This poem was written in response to the renovation prompt at Haiku Heights.
It just so happens that a construction company is renovating a house half a block from the school where I teach. My son and I pass it twice a day.

Beautiful. I especially like the last line. Nicely done!
New or old beams? Just think of the stories the wood could tell if it could talk. Nice!
Beautiful…
Mohinee, thank you for your visit. I tried to leave a comment on your blog, but was unable. I liked your poem.

if i were a wood beam, yes, that is exactly how i would have felt….no weights, no burdens…carefree, naked…so, yes, renovation means just that š
Having an old home — I am sure our house’s old beams feel the same!!! Nicely done!
