House that holds me, household that I hold dear, Woman and man at the doorway, come what will Hospitable, more than you know I enter here, In retreat, in laughter, in the need of your love still. More perhaps than you fancy, fancy finds This room with books and answers in the walls; I have continual reference to the lines learned here early, later readings false. And more than you dream wake from a special dream To nothing but remorse for miles around And steady my bed at this unchanging scene Where the changing dogs dispute a stranger town. O identity is a traveling-piece with some, But here is what calls me, here what I call home. This sonnet by William Meredith, Lecturer in English at Connecticut College, was written for his parents. The sonnet, from the volume entitled Love Letters from An Impossible Land, is reprinted here by permission from the poet and the publishers, Yale University Press copyright 1944,
