In response to the picture prompt above provided by Rochelle
There is a small place
all off on it’s own
A shack to anyone else
but to us it’s a home
I cook and I clean
I read and I write
I wait for your visit
when the time is right
From the moment you arrive
until the moment you leave
This little house we are in
is ours if only make-believe
It’s here I’ll be each day and night
in this little house where I will stay
Reading and writing and waiting
for you until the fateful day that I die
Gypsie’s Wonderful World of Words 
Dear Ami,
So much longing in these sweet verses. Nicely done.
Shalom,
Rochelle

Oh dear, such a sad twist at the end. It sounds so idyllic until then.
