I am dreaming of a house, inspired by "Visitor"
I am dreaming of a house,
Perhaps in a similar situation to this one,
With life and light streaming from its heart.
A river of animal warmth
flowing through every room
into the garden
around the furniture and the toys
and back, up the stairs
to bed and safety.
Come spend some time.
There is warmth to share,
Food to sustain you.
You are welcome
If you bring with you whatever
light and warmth you are able.
If you have plenty you can complement our supply.
If you have little or none
then we will try to send you on your way
with more than you brought.
Like our detritus,
our hearth's heat spills over through our lives
and our interactions.
Please gather some up
and carry it with you.
