Who Is Your Neighbor
Who Is Your Neighbor?
Forty-seven years we are in this our home of dreams;
youngsters flew the nest to chase their very own sun beams.
We are the oldest on our street among mid-lifers here;
no children's voices, kids on bikes, school buses do we hear.
Two years ago a family moved in across the street –
a New York City fireman, his wife and son so sweet.
Our spry young neighbors brought new life; we feel special joy
to interact with them and watch them teach their little boy.
My hubby, retired fire chief, can share so much with the them.
Young neighbors brought the gift of youth to make us smile again.
