Vitalizing Interior Renovations

Delicate maneuvers
remodeling
the half fallen house
on the corner,
taking the siding
piece by piece
nailing it into
securities balance.

Paving the driveway
for years of
traveled upon
eternally happy bliss,
culminating from
the layers of
concrete love
poured evenly to coat.

Replacing smoke haze
clouded windows
shattered
by living lies,
with ever clear
triple paned honesty
encased in
hard oak divinity.

Doorways trampled
with dirty layers
of exhausted
phony footprints,
take on the new
decorum of strength
vitalizing
interior renovations.

Excellent imagery DestinysCharm! From one who has renovated a century old farmhouse ... you've captured me with these lovely words. Very nicely penned!

Best wishes,

Wow! What beautiful words here.
"Re building", yes, a delicate process but worth it in the end. I wish it was'nt such a long process to get to the finished product.
