There are houses
Of varying shapes and sizes
Cement, wood, stone,
Metal, bricks,
Or even straw…
Made with a carpenter’s dexterous skill,
And an architect’s most intelligent design.
Animals and insects also build amazing
Structures in which to live;
Really, a testament of God’s likha.
While houses can be made with love,
Given all the intelligence and skill
One can muster,
Love, only love, can make a house, a home…
a favorite space for resting weary heads.
-Gilda Patricia
Day 23-Word of the Day-likha (v.) To create something through intelligence and skill,
