Concord House
There is a house on Nashatuck hill in Concord
with beautiful open spaces
It was built in the 1930s
and it has an Adirondack style porch that looks out over
a small valley and Concord center
The house has three stories
and on every story the detail work is craftsmanship
shining wood railings
grand moldings
I don’t know who lives there now
I only saw it once like a boy whose eyes meet yours
that you never forget somehow
I am sure by now some wonderful wealthy people have moved in
and given it beautiful colors
filled it with beautiful lamps and light and laughter
I am sure it has become a show place where people come
and go and ohh and ahhh and laugh and eat
and chink glasses
and I will always remember it just like a boy I loved once
even thought I may never step foot inside it’s doors again
