5\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Wallpaper<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I want to live in the wallpaper at the funeral home.<\/p>\n
Can you see it?\u00a0 Few colors, white, grays, and greens.<\/p>\n
showing distant hills.\u00a0 A simple artist’s rendering.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A red house sits behind a brief hill suggesting an old<\/p>\n
school.\u00a0 The split rail fence, still true and unworn,<\/p>\n
now settled near lanky birch swaying spring leaves.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the beyond, white houses, perhaps a town.\u00a0 One needs<\/p>\n
good vision to see who lives there and wonder why.\u00a0 It is<\/p>\n
the red house where I live.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No longer a school holding decades of memories with the<\/p>\n
rusted iron swing for children years grown and gone.\u00a0 I will swing<\/p>\n
there soon and consider the gentle mountain far away.<\/p>\n
