Your House
for Gisele

driving along the highway
past the churchyard
I catch a glimpse
of your new home

one day soon
(once you are more
settled in)
I will visit you there
I will bring some flowers
as a housewarming gift
I will sit a while
in the sunshine

I know
that I have not been invited
but I do not think
that you will mind

and I hope
that the move wasn't too hard
that the lawn is well-tended
that the neighbours are friendly
and most of all,
that you are happy.
