Sonatas XII-46 (Life)

This old school building in Kekoskee, Wisconsin, was moved to its present location in the 1930s, and has been a private home since then. I find the use of this old school building as a house intriguing in some way. Photo taken September 2016. Print made August 2019, 8” x 10”.

Words by Khaetidawne and Brendan Quirk

An old school house framed by trees and rocks along the garden path
It was moved to this place before World War Two’s wrath.
It was made into a home where families could abide
I wonder how many school treasures were left inside?
 
Interesting -- maybe it's for energy efficiency, but the windows look as though it was altered to become a defensive bunker! They were most likely multi-pane casement windows out to the next brick rectangle when new. (I have some experience with those!)
