"Can you feel the soul of an abandoned house; can you hear the whispering? " Quote by _Constance La France Our farmhouse holds memories. Only in my heart, daydreams It burned with wall's treasuries. Windows gone letting in sunbeams. Reminiscence's aroma Flows with each deluge. Even though like glaucoma My fragmented thoughts refuge. Though to abuse subjected Where was no bathroom, doghouse. Only dad's love protected. Inside walls of our farmhouse Written: 5/31/23 For Constance La France Contest: Writing Challenge "C" Quotes This is the Ae Freislighe form/I may have used one syllable too many in a couple of lines just could not think of a way to change it to only 7.

Artfully crafted lines evoke a wistful longing for your ancestral homestead, Sara. The notion that the walls bear witness to a bygone era, a legacy now departed, is a poignant one and complemented beautifully by your selected quotation. Congratulations on a superb submission, and best of luck in the contest.

A lovely nostalgic write on your family’s farmhouse Sara. I love the idea that walls hold treasuries, the memoirs of a saga that used to exist before the family made their exit… Belle

Why, thank you, Belle. Yes, it was sad to see the place with the house gone instead of being improved and lived in. Sara
