Stripping
the railings in
our house
scratched
and scuffed
I chisel
away
paint splatters
wax
gooey brown tar
then sand
away the finish
erasing the memories
of years
opening up the grain
bringing it all back
to the wood
which was there
first
beginning again

so cool to think of all that happened there before you.
and now, you and yer man are going to make so many happy memories there.
although, i think you should leave the drawings in the upstairs bathroom!
