Write about your dream home.

I close my eyes at night and I see it: the house of my dreams. I open my eyes in the morning, and I see it: the house of my dreams.

This prompt didn’t invoke my writing reflex, rather a reflective state of mind. A punctuation in time where a song and a photo have collided.

The song:

Our House

Song by David Crosby, Graham Nash, and Stephen Stills

I’ll light the fire, you place the flowers

In the vase that you bought today

Staring at the fire for hours and hours

While I listen to you play your love songs

All night long for me, only for me

Come to me now, and rest your head for just five minutes

Everything is done

Such a cozy room, the windows are illuminated

By the evening sunshine through them

Fiery gems for you, only for you

Our house, is a very, very, very fine house

With two cats in the yard

Life used to be so hard

Now everything is easy ’cause of you

And now…

Now everything is easy ’cause of you

And now…

I’ll light the fire, while you place the flowers

In the vase that you bought today
