Paper Houses

A new day, a New Year! Where do all the four seasons of our life come & go? It feels sometimes like time has wings that soar past the long-lasting horizon. It can change in a second or move ever so slowly, counting the minutes, one by one. Watch & wait for the clock to move its two hands & ticktock around! Our life drifts on by, as we measure the moments & count out the days of our lives… like the sands of an hour glass bulb. I picture a quaint quiet place to store up our memories, in the rooms of a thin paper house; where the walls are all painted & the doors swing to open or close. Paper dolls, paper clothes, special times & events, as never a dull moment unfolds! But soon the house must carefully go, as the test of time wears its welcome. Many fond moments are treasured & gathered, from joyful days & simple pleasures! Mementoes of love fill the rooms of our hearts, as Father Time turns to grace us with a new younger face. Begin something new… build a bridge, cross the gap. Set a goal, pay the toll, make a dream, start afresh. Laugh at loud, enjoy life & love with a passion! Creating these visuals of lasting impressions stands up through the trials of harsh winter storms. Though the struggles can wear & tear, even break our dear hearts, they strengthen & deepen our souls. Paper houses… they always come & they quickly go, yet we cherish those moments we’d so fondly adored. We can’t stay in the past, we have to let go, move on to a different tomorrow. Yesterday’s gone, but it’s left us its memorable songs. Say goodbye to the old, shed a tear for those precious Paper Houses. Bring in some good cheer, say hello to today & shout out to all, a Happy New Year!
