The house that Eric built

The Thump and Lick
of base and treble quickly
lit

A hum and tune in mind provided to a brain battened down like hatches on a ship of fools set to sea with ambition and practiced prowess 

The Thump and Lick
The See-You Through
Sweeping change
Fresh and new



The family
You build with open arms

A fitting reward
To the kindness in your smile
A reflection perfect of you

Not out for gold
Not o' conquest
The treasure dig-dug
The rock wealth found
Residual deposits
Mined from the veins, creases, and deep grooves
of a family man's open arms
