Beautiful poetry accompanied by a wonderful photograph.
It is so amazing what subjects one may find right around in their own neighborhoods that with just one click of a button may be brought to life.

A wonderful sharing Victoria,

what a fabulous photo of a marvelous, rustic barn -- so reminiscent of the many old barns that once dotted the landscape of the rural area I am from -- your poem tells a wonderful story of hand crafted things, made with great love and an expertise difficult to find in this time -- enduring examples of an enduring people, our ancestors -- love this work Vickie -- thanks for sharing the view, photographic and poetic -- love,joy,and peace to you my dear friend -- Jon Michael

Victoria,
My mother's house was over 100 years old, as was its barn. If history has a feel...I felt it there in those buildings. Give me modern any day. I can appreciate the older buildings but there's always a feeling in them of being watched. You brought me back to Laura Ingalls Wilder days with this post. Love and Hugs,
Sheila

Great photo and verses to complement it, Vickie. There used to be many old barns around here but sadly, they are getting more and more hard to find as "development" continues to swallow priceless farmland. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you,

Today we are treated to cement monstrosities that hundred years from now will be still monstrosities.
What we admire here his the handicraft of people that respected the land and did their work with callous hands that brought bread to the table, with no hurry, knowing that tomorrow will be another day of labor and talks with the horses pulling the plough.

It is such a wonderful treat to come across these once proud but now fallen to disrepair relics of another stage in history. The stories they can tell if you know how to let your minds' eye look into your imaginative past. Love the picture and the write Vick, thank you for sharing.

BRILLIANT OLD DWELLINGS SO PERSONAL BUILT BY HAND FROM MATERIALS GATHERD BY THE BUILDER. WHAT HISTORY THEY HOLD, THE WOODEN FRAMES SOAKED IN MEMORIES OF A HARD LIFE FILLED WITH DANGER YET ALSO FILLED WITH LOVE AND HAPPPINESSS, OLD BUILDING LIKE THIS NEED PRESERVING. AND YOUR WORDS DO A GREAT JOB VICKIE.
DOES THIS GREAT PLACE BELONG TO YOU?
STAY HAPPY.
