My Friend's House
Whose house this was means much to me
although its boarded up today.
It once belonged to my dear friend.
That’s why I stop and stand you see.
My friend would think I’m rather strange
to stop and stare at this dead house.
I think of summer days so grand
before his world begin to change.
I wonder where's my friend’s new home
with all his brothers and sisters?
They took each one away so fast,
five children living on their own.
Whose house this was, I think I know
as I stand dreaming in the snow
of days with summer sun's bright glow,
wondering where my friend did go.
