Hire a Carpenter
I am attempting to sheathe
my hopes and plans
with scraps of plywood,nails, concrete—
frame the essence of existence
into material form.
It's called a dream home:
the where and how I'd like to live.
Clutter free, organized
,space to meditate, find a quiet center
:a window view into the heart
of God's natural creation.
A seamless flow, harmony.
Not retreat, respite.
Magazines and books, brochures
pour off a table
onto a drawing board.
Sketches, draftsmanship.
Design again pieces to fit together—
what is life, family, living
under the canopy of God's grace:
an insulated, shingled roof
