They'Ve Flown Away
.
The echoes of children's
giggles and chuckles
have faded away down
the long tunnel of time.
Quiet, the old house
is now unbearably hollow,
as though the very life of it
has just been sucked out.
The living room is now
an empty nest longing
for birds that haven't
lost their throaty songs.
