stories

the entire 200 year old house

was a  time capsule

and if it’s walls could talk

the tales they’d tell

listen you can imagine the voices of

plantation owners

slave  workers

rebel soldiers

brother against brother

the civil war

history tucked away in every corner

a history that had many stories

all truths to be heard

  1. LOVE the concept of the entire house as a time capsule. Both creative and so true! Would love a bit more specificity if you choose to revise it. Even without that, its brevity certainly conveys the impact with the more general words you have used. Thank you.
