This is the story of a House
Of which it was said that it had two Dawns
When Dawn rose to its left,
Beneath the land of its birth,
It revealed the sea of the south
in hues of rose, citrus and azure
As the house rejoiced
In a banquet laid by its first travellers
But when Dawn rose to its right,
Beneath the land it had chosen,
It emerged beneath the glow of a boreal sky
In hues of ash, fir and opal
Like a canticle raised by its last people
Such is the story of this house
A Home made in Heaven.
