fresh art

there is only
so much
room
in this house
for another
chair,
or table, or
picture
to hang on
the walls
that are
no longer bare
and asking
for art.
there is only
so much room
in our lives,
for another
love to move
in within
our healing
hearts, but
it doesn't stop
you from
getting
the hammer out,
the nail,
and centering
someone new
against the wall,
always willing
to bend towards
another
fresh start.
