Poem: I Once Had A Home
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: April/2017
I once had a home;
a lovely peaceful abode,
quite tranquil - before
the raging storms came -
It had Persian rugs
atop hardwood floors -
Stain glass windows
on all doors -
One could hear
sweet calming music
from an old fashion Victrola -
Life was good before the
raging storms came -
I remember the large shark aquarium
in the living room window,
welcoming everyone who entered
my abode-
But then, the rains came
storming out of control -
From the outside,
my house was heavens garden
of paradise -
White picket fence -
multi colored flowers across
an arbor, with a lusciously manicured
lawn.
It had a wrap around porch,
with a lazy day swing
with a cushion full of fluffy pillows....
So inviting
So warm
Life was good before the
raging storms came -
I once had a home
