Madison Lane

Who am I and what have I to gain
This I ponder walking to Madison Lane
Where my old grandmother's house still stands
Oh how memories twist like old rubber bands
Not much to it but I hold it sublime
Reminisce of a much happier place and time
Never have I in all these years
Walked through a house with many falling tears
This old abandoned house has a place in my heart 
Even though day by day it falls apart
My love for this house will grow and grow 
And when I leave my fruits will show
What have I now to gain
As I walk back home from Madison Lane

Really nicely done. I am sure most of us have a place like this that is close to our hearts.
