A Thought for Today
Courage is nothing more than absolute conviction that what you
are doing is right.

FROM the¨BOOKS
OLD HOUSES
I love old houses
for their smells,
their must and dust and mildew
and for what they've been
to people I will never know.
The character
of caulked up cracks
means more to me
than plastered walls and pretty paper,
walls that play the neighbor's music
when the radio I love
has gone to sleep.
The faces of the old
are like old houses
every line's a highway
from the past.
And so I love old houses
and the people who sit rocking
on their sagging porches.
-from "We Touch The Sky," 1979, 1980
