Tiny House Movement

There's an obscure movement Spreading 'cross the land. The 'Tiny House Movement'— The unfurling little band. The occupants declare The living to be sweet: Be it sixty, eighty, ninety, Or two-hundred-square-feet. But it would take discipline, Coupled with all grace, For one to live contentedly In such a compact space. It seems, the basic concept Is that of ‘downsizing.’ Some dare take it further To that of ‘minimizing.’ It rids one of the clutter So stifling that it haunts. And offsets one's expenses To the affording of their wants. The simple, gorgeous structures Sport effortless upkeep. They’re delightful and so cozy; There's even a loft for sleep. Those built on wheels Can travel to and fro— Wherever and whenever The owner wants to go. ‘Tis an interesting concept. The thought is quite appealing, Adventurous, exciting, And somewhat revealing. Indeed, there are challenges— And such in many a way. But it seems that 'Tiny House, ' Is, doubtless, here to stay. (Revised 2015)
