SHATTERED HOUSE PART 11

this house still standing
only frames of few in its landing
its fall, hard crashing,
shattered to its landing
waiting to be repaired
noticed and remembered...
that one may take the long empty road
that has long been left alone.
notice a once was house,
and stop to check it out
walk in its hallow door
and feel its cry for warmth...
while feeling the bitter wind
Seer through them,
like a bitter cold burn...
and while standing in the door way
the ground draws their eyes away
from the empty nest
of this torn down hallowed house
though such wind still blows
through this empty house
the broken pieces of memories
a once happy place...
On the ground still remains
shattered underneath the house of frames
this house can be repaired
the frames can be put back together
but what it needs the most
is love to bring warmth back In the house
sorting through its mess,
looking for missing pieces...
find what is there, and what is needed
so much of the house is lost
the peices to rebuild are not enough
yet the broken peices of memories there
could replace the lost pieces to repair
so scrambling through the house of frames
trying to get to the scattered memories
discovering it still lives
whimpering underneath the piled on pieces
but to have to wait
to have to just stay that way
and dream of the day it will have golden walls
just like before, when it once was
and like before, draw attention again
to the travelers that may drive in
down that long windy road
to see this beautiful home-
until then in a dark grey mess
with little remains
it patiently waits
for someone to pick up its broken pieces

The way ya created shatters of hopelessness in the first part, compelling me to say "move on and put it behind you", then ya brought the theme full circle to hope and optimism "for someone to pick up its broken pieces" compels me to say, "Ya need an extry hand to help do it?"
Beautifully constructed poem 'n' message. My compliments, Adelle. Dang I love that name!

A good foundation... strong... frame.... can hold up much weight, whether it be a house or a body... a person must pray in order to straighten out his or her life first... if that is not done, the house or heart will always fall down... and turn into bits and pieces.... build your house and heart on solid rock..
