The house of my dreams

It’s the place I adore.
It’s my shelter.
My home has no doors,
You can’t enter.
Time is so minor,
There’s no clock.
Although I have mirrors,
A large block.
And I am reading
Books as often
As I’m drinking
A cup of coffee.
It’s the place I adore,
It’s my shelter.
My heart has no doors,
You can’t enter.

Great job! The description is good, although I think you could go on describing the appearance of your house. The rest is just perfection. Please read, rate, and comment on my poems! Thanks!

thank you very much for your comment, you've got very interesting ideas :)
It's a very old poem so it's kinda unfinished. I just posted it...

Interesting poem. Kind of short. I feel like you could lengthen it more and go into depth with your ideas here. Definitely has strong moments. Curious question: what did you mean by Although I have mirrors, A large block? Other than that, I loved the rejection of time and the world. It seems almost like a writer's true world--a world of books and words (and coffee). Great work. :) Would you please comment on my poems titled Without the Writer and The Perfect Fit?
