Brick by Brick —
Brick by brick, our house is being built —
From bricks that cannot be purchased.
These are special bricks of letting go —
Bricks of love and understanding.
The roof may leak — this is true.
And drafts may blow throughout here aplenty.
Our doors may be broken — swinging wildly
Yet still — new bricks are being laid solidly.
In time — our house will become less flimsy,
And our home – become warm and cosy.
For each mindful brick that we now place —
Is a foundation we build lovingly.
