The Keeping House

In the woods there is a Keeping House
A place where souls may rest
The servant slaves who work away
Are better than the best

The hungry wind may roar upon
This unforgotten place
But those who stay in sheltered bliss
Find in Keep their base

Unrosen cheeks and unshed tears
Are never common place
In fact the opposite in kind
Is who may show their face

The Keeping house is full and plump
Content and light its home
For children lost and traveler weary
For all who need may come

I am the Keeping house
The great chimney is mine
The love within has given shape
To all who come- in time

I am the servant slaves
Who keep the Keeping House
For non e do go unsheltered
Though they be a mouse

and in the daylight i miss the nightmare- but deathly fear it in the dark of night
