children kicking at the night stars

twelve to remember about this house

glass doorknobs + accompanying hardware + skeleton keys that lock, unlock

wood floors in the kitchen, newly swept

arched doorway into kitchen, above refrigerator

church window registers in the walls

the loop around which the kids run, skip, creep, tiptoe backwards

clay walls in the basement

turquoise front door

creaky place in the hallway floor

late afternoon light in the kitchen

unexpected daffodils in places

little acorns

the jungle boy hut
