IF OUR HOUSE WERE ON FIRE, WHAT WOULD I TAKE? ~ rough draft

I would take you
just you…

you…just you
and the usual zoo:

the tortoise and frog and our noodle-brain dog
and the cat that purrs if I could only find her

And Mom’s grand piano, my scarf from Berlin
Dad’s old typewriter and my violin

and you.

==================

This is a list poem in rhymed couplets.
I loved thinking about this question…what WOULD I take?

The scarf is from a thrift shop in Berlin…I wrap my violin in it.

Bruce liked this one.
