Purposful rain fell <br />Upon the house <br />With holes covering the roof <br />And shards of the windows <br />Sprinkling the yard <br />Allowing light to bounce <br />Onto the faces that passed <br /> <br />The house did not crumple <br />The beams refused to break <br />Though beaten <br />It was not broken<br /><br />Jewel Tanka<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/never-broken/
