A home

1896 foundations dug into the earth
Wonder then what was its worth
Nowhere near the £220,000 plus
Just a roof over ones head such fuss
100 yrs and some wow its seen change
Rooms divided added and rearranged
As fashions dictate shell still unaltered
The three storey view now obscured 
New builds as the human race thrives
Victorian attitudes forgotten i summise 
The coal fire still open lit at xmas
Providing a clue to ways forgotten alas
