I'm ready! :) The promised renovation is finally taking place.


Poem Artwork

... renewal isn't only in the
Spring season, but also, here at home:
apartment renovation.  The roof
replaced; old siding removed; new, bright
with promise.  Pretty soon, the walls will
sprout new coats of paint; new carpeting
will bloom underfoot; new tiled floors
will await the kiss of my feet; new
appliances will be waiting for
my return; windows sealed to keep the
weather where it belongs:  outside.  New
doors!  C E I L I N G  F A N S !!  Almost everything
boxed, waiting for the signal to move:
new opportunities to convert
my house into the home I always
wanted.  Spring isn't just for flowers.  :)

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (4/2)

Spring is definitely also for poets ready to embrace rebirth and change in general. Greatly enjoyed the read, especially the breeze from the CEILING FANS!!

This is really exciting, Karla, uplifting and bright. It does our soul good to have a clean and bright house, it lifts the spirits in ways that we don't even expect. A fresh new place puts us into a peaceful spot that is not unlike breathing in the glorious smell of sheets dried outside on a clothesline...do they even have those anymore??? I do, but then I am a boomer! I hope you love the renovation!!
Take care,
Sherry
