When you slam the door to a wooden house
The whole thing shudders just a little
If you pound the door to see who’s home
The whole thing shakes just a little
Sounds and thumps and bumps and shivers
Reverberate and underpin a weaker state
In any wooden home or shop or store.
But a stone or brick or masonry home is
Solid as Ella Fitzgerald.
Thanks be to NaPoWriMo for featuring your site! When I got to Ella Fitzgerald I laughed aloud-- And I thought the poem was about a house! Bless you.
