Down a Dirt Beaten Road

Down a dirt beaten road There is a small house, Where the children used to laugh Play and run about. The house is old and worn It's growing moss on the sides, There used to be a wooded area Where the children used to hide. Down a dirt beaten road The children used to pick berries, Flowers of many sorts The children were so merry. The house is empty now It has been for quite a few years, All the laughter is gone Now, it's nothing, but tears. Copyright Cynthia Jones Oct.24/2006

Empty old homes do die hard. Well-worded and the imagery is vibrantly displayed on the screen of my mind..
