A Spotless Home

A Home For The Master Builder

With lots of love
The Master Builder
built a house.
He formed the perfect
house; clean and
spotless, in and out.
But, without a doubt
it didn't take long for
my house to become
cluttered; a dirty mess.
I must confess
my house began to look
sad, all dirty and stained.
Outside my house remained
nice and clean,
But inside, my house
accumulated
more dust and dirt.
One day, The Master Builder
decided to visit
the house that He had built.
Preparing for His visit,
a little corner of the house
was swept and cleaned
to await the coming
of The Master Builder.
The rest of the
house remained untidy
and no matter what
was done, it did not get clean.
The Visitor rested in
the area that did gleam
the area that had been scrubbed
and was now clean.
He returned on other visits
and to my surprise
the cleanliness
began to spread.
With each visit
my house became tidier
and it did not take long
for the house to become
a place of welcome
for The Master Builder.
How strange it was
that those little
visits by The Master Builder
caused the dirt to disappear
from front to rear.
Now the house
was clean and pure.
He had been patient for he knew
his visits would have my
house looking like new.
My house had passed the test.
and The Master Builder
could now relax and enjoy His rest
in my spotless home.
