one day

This photo duo touches my restless soul 

in the aftermath of the previous post.

You see, one of those infamous areas 

of 'unfinished business' is the bedroom, 

which we'll get to tackle one day (after the hallway),

creating a separate study/library area in one end. 

Here's me imagining myself when it's done,

(well perhaps not in those heels :). )

Until then it's still a case of contending 

with piles of books strewn here and there

and stuffed in boxes... 

“As the hours crept by, 

the afternoon sunlight bleached 

all the books on the shelves 

to pale, gilded versions of themselves 

and warmed the paper and ink inside the covers 

so that the smell of unread words 

hung in the air.” 
― Maggie Stiefvater, Shiver
