Love Poem: Castle House

Castle House

In the middle of a street
In a nice suburban town
Sits a house unlike the others 
And deserving of renown.

With some unexpected turrets
In the way it was designed,
Just one glance brings times medieval 
To the forefront of the mind.

For it looks just like a castle,
So all passersby will stare
Wond’ring maybe if some royalty
Somehow’s residing there.

I would love to see if inside 
It retains that cool allure,
But from visiting some real ones,
There’s one thing of which I’m sure.

If you don’t have many servants
And you’re living in a castle,
Cleaning towers topped with turrets 
Must be quite a major hassle!
