Come In!

MY WORLD.

COME IN!

Since it is the centre of My World I'll now put it on show,

For I think ours is the dearest house and, well, I ought to know.

The Real Estate Agent showed it and I knew that it was mine.

From the moment I entered in the door I put up a 'My House' sign!
I immediately named it! 'Summerset' it's called.
(My own spelling of 'Somerset'; locals would be appalled!)
I wanted a very English name, for England's where I'm from,
But I didn't want to be too brash and shout out 'I'm a Pom!'

It's only a town-house really, with a very small back yard,

But if wanted anything better I'd have to search very hard!

There are two features in this photo that  mean felicity;

First, there's the angle of the stairs; I like the geometry.

The window on the landing makes patterns from the light,

And the shadows thrown on the walls at dusk, make a really charming sight.

Then there's the doorway to my left, which you only partly see.

That very normal-looking door means all the world to me!

For it leads to the hugest cupboard; it goes under the stairs as well,

And it will take a year to clear if ever we think to sell!

It's a fantastic dumping-ground for all those bits and bobs;

Those 'what-shall-we-do-with-this-things' and rough, half-finished jobs!

I'm a tidy housewife, but deceitful I confess;

Everything looks spick-and-span but the cupboard! What a mess!

So thank you for visit.( I'm glad you brought your spouse!)

I've been happy to show you a corner of my house.
