pent up excitement
warm greeting
rushing pell mell into the old house
instantly
envelped by the eloquent perfume
wood, comfort, history, warmth, happiness
dashing up the solid bright wood
not noticing the beauty
the unique rail of turned posts
the lovely grain and warm patina
stomping with the creak of comfort
until we reached the top
and were enveloped into
the heart of our family home
seven one seven.
Jessi 3.1
I always remember feeling winded going up the stairs for the first time coming from low altitude. I also love the creaking noise and how the stairwell echoed when grandma or grandpa would "yoo hoo" from above.
