Green Gables

We drove over the top of the hill and Matthew pulled up.  He went to point Green Gables out to me but I wanted to guess - I knew my heart would lead me to my new home.
I could see a little church and a valley behind it.  My eyes went from one house to the other - none of them seemed to speak to me at all,  I was getting so disheartened when I saw it - over on my left.  A gorgeous house back from the road and above it in the sky a crystal-white star - I could see a plethera of promise and guidance,
I knew it.  I was home.
As we drove into the yard it was getting dark and the trees were creaking and groaning.  I just knew they were talking in their sleep to welcome me.  Oh what a wonderful life lay ahead of me.
