the owner in no hurry


Once it was
In a hurry to complete
Clear the land
Of trees and bushes

Once it was done
A week or two
The workers came
Piling was erected

When was piling was done
The experience workers came
The framework of the house
It was pursued in earnest

A couple of months
The house came into shape
Then it was stopped
A month or two

Then the activities begun
The plastering of the walls
The window frameworks came
The drilling the whole day

The wiring cables laid
The floor tiles took a few weeks
The slow progress
Then the piping and water tank

The gate was installed
The windows panels done
The paint too came along
Everything came into shape

Then it was left empty
For 3 months the house still stands
The owner came to see with friends
Nothing was done since

The old bushes grow
Spreading slowly on the empty garden
Once it takes hold the breeding of mosquitoes
The house the final touches still no sign
