This house with eight walls still stands firm in the field.
Two story, it held the children of the working family, that kept these fields alive.
The trees are all too new to have weathered out the storms, with the exception of the one stump, rising in the front.
Closer look will give the appearance that the tree on the left is growing from the southwest to the northeast, all the little branch’s being on the right side of the tree, and the side of the house, bowing into the Oklahoma sky.
Two story, lots of room, the winter grasses cut but still holding firm, as it was swathed just so you could see the house when planting or harvesting, and always keep the residence of those who loved, and lived here, alive .
The storms came, and went, and came and went, starting to take the old house down, a hundred and some years since it was first put up.
