30-Day Image Prompt.


I couldn't put it into words
so I spoke with my hands
and I built us this home
we'd be happy at anywhere...
me, the strong and silent type and
you, the smart and sensible one.
It took us years
of love and loss and work
but little did we know
that it would give us
so much more than we ever put in
and after all is accounted for...
look at what we've got!
Not a house, not a home,
but it's our little world
where we've grown to be
more than just "me an' you";
we're us. Always.
Bigger than we imagined
and everything we've faced...
and I still don't have the words
but we've given each other the world.
What else would we need?
