.
I cannot tell you what a bargain this is,
Built at a cost of seven thousand, selling
For seven five, and all the utilities
In, and trees.
Landscaped front and back, strings up for lawn,
Tiles, wrought-iron fixtures, entrance hall
With an echo, echo, echo, beamed ceiling
And a Southern feeling.
Marvelous in this spring month, in this empty field,
Out of the already forgotten hammers, hands compressed,
So like a snowdrop sprung, white, delicate, and new,
With mountain view.
Josephine Miles (1911-1985): $7,500 from Lines at Intersection, 1939, in Collected Poems: 1930-83
