Was this a place once filled with love?
Or did hardship take its toll too soon
Did children run and laugh and play
Or did they toil from the break of day?
Was there warmth in the kitchen
While chicken roasted and cookies baked
And where there lots of holidays to celebrate?
Did they move on to something bigger and better
And gratefully leave this behind
Not caring or attached enough
to worry about its decline?
When I see a place such as this I wonder.
I wonder what would be the story it could tell
Whoever once belonged to this place
I wish them and all their descendants well.
Thena
