    The house that never dies

    Knocking on the walls
    Rapping at the windows
    Sounds in the attic
    Crys of a widdow

    Footsteps in the night
    Childrens laughter in your ears
    Telling a tale
    Of forgotten years

    Figures in the dark
    Seen from the corner of you eye
    A life once lived
    That seems unwilling to die

    A house telling a story
    For those willing to hear
    Uncovering untold secrets
    No intentions of fear

    A thought provoking poem. What are the secrets that are uncovered. I like this one, it is very lyrical. It's as if the house knows all and hides its secrets in its walls.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
