Wordsworthian Notes on a House

Great vines and creepers
hold it in its final embrace,
It sinks to the earth
in a silent slow pace;

Bright yellow flowers
bloom where it falls,
No memory lives on
of its towering walls;

I look at this poem long after and see,
though people move on and places forget
In my words, from time you are free,
little house, you live forever.
