the wall

To hide
behind
The wall of brick
Dis jointed they lay
Decayed loose to
Touch

To pick and scrap
Between the layers
Of decay
Loose the bricks now are

Dangerous and loose
Old the wall becomes
Indanger to fall
Scattered the bricks become
Fallen in the shadows of winters storm

Ruins now it becomes
A monumet a testement of
What it was
A bare brick
A wall

There is a child-like innocence in your poems that I have always admired.
