Terrific take off on the bricks of the manor, and you propel us to chunks of the mortar of the mind; in just a few words, slender lines, you whoosh us around the world and back into your poet's pocket.
This brings to mind a piece I saw last week on the Great Wall of China, and how the mortar was made of a rice mixture. So symbolic. Beautiful piece, Michael.

I really like that first line, Michael:
'The space that separates
becomes the mortar that binds—'
Lovely. :-)
I arrived at your blog by way of Magpie Tales. Nice to meet you.
I love what you saw in the photo ... something no one else saw.
