WHO IS YOUR NEIGHBOR
contest entry

Who is your neighbor      
This old man next door

Here in your back yard
You must be on guard

 Don’t want to be seen
 Don’t want to be mean

You live here alone
Your heart is stone

Has he come to knock?
Will he break the lock?

I have great neighbours along my country lane for thirty some odd years. Unfortunately when a neighbourhood is aged like us we are soon all to be replaced. We have lost two originals on our street and they are sorely missed---but remembered....didee
