Farewell Home

Here I sit in my chair With emotional feelings of despair Remembering the good times we once had The thoughts and memories leaving me sad An empty old house no longer with people As lonely as a secluded church steeple The garden once full of children and fun Now all remaining is the shining sun Mother and father have now passed on Furniture and belongings will soon be gone Leaving the memories of this sweet little home As I cancel the bills over the phone I wonder to myself who will have this place Once more filling it with love and grace An empty old house waiting for that time. When their will be food laughter and glasses of wine. A house warming party full of spirit and a brand new family living within it.
