Forsaken Home

Tufts of grass peek from between rotten floor boards,
Once shining blue roof tiles now obscured by leaves and debris,
It takes a special kind of eye to see the beauty in a forsaken home.

*4th in "three line poetry" contest*

Casarah Nance Date: 3/15/2015 7:58:00 AM Oh that is cool, I love exploring derelict buildings, your write is awesome I hope it places tops for you! :) Login to Reply Amelia Harmon Date: 3/15/2015 8:46:00 AM Thanks! Wasn't actually brave enough to explore it, so I don't know about the floor boards, but I loved the multicoloured tiled roof! Japanese houses are so cool to begin with! I unfortunately cannot share pics );
