Instead - a house for living in
Plate windows streetwise boldly stare
Darth Vader solar-panels glare!
The Virus kept the men at bay
But here they come again today
Up parapet on ladder rung
To finish what needs to be done.
The rough brick height all smoothed and planed
(Thank God it dried before it rained!)
Now boasts its wooden beam anew
With stark white hooks, ornate, in view.
My hanging baskets now swing free
Their fate not what it ought to be ...
But post-Corona they will fill
So visitors will get a thrill!
