Apartment Stats

Coming home to this empty apartment,

seem's so dishartning,

In my heart compartment,

no signs of life,

says a man, with no wife,

sultry and dull, as evening sets in,

no tails a waggin, no doggie spins,

filled with air, so thick and dry,

seems all I can do in this apartment, is cry,

It's time to fill it with happiness and joy,

maybe some kids, and lots of their toys,

oh yes, a dog and a cat,

you can bet,  for sure they'll be that,

now furnished with laughter and joy,

for now, my apartment,

I much do enjoy......
