there’s a little shack plain.
Not much my dear to see.
Come and share it with me.

Bring your little dog, Poke,
who’s the color of smoke.
And a cushion for sleep
that at night warming keep.

The roof doesn’t have leak,
new floor’s pine lacking squeak..
Bed of oak with springs neat,
quilt down comforter’s heat

Job is steady at trade,
where broad sheets are fast made.
There’s employment for you,
live with me plans come true.

I dearly love this write. It has such a nostalgic feel to it. I can see my Grandfather proposing to my Grandmother in this fashion. He was a mere blacksmith when they married and they built back up a large ranch working together with a dream in mind. Reach the apex they certainly did, hand in hand and heart to heart.

This is very good. I like the simplicity of it because it seems more sincere.

This was a really good write. Simplicity at it's best.
