A House

As you go East on Beach Blvd, just in Bay St Louis, there is a house.

It must have been grand.

The walls are made of reinforced cement, with a coat of white stucco. It is a home of delicate beauty, with arches supporting the side of the porch. The living room floor is constructed of polished terra cotta tiles. Sitting inside the picture window, you feel the warmth of a stone fireplace as your family gathers on Christmas eve. On a cool winter evening, with the pounding surf in the background, you sip hot mulled cider from a festive christmas mug.

"It will be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge and hiding place from the storm and rain. Isaiah 4:6
