A Poem for the Sunday Muse -- Deserted
Needs of an abandoned home
Order me a bucket of paint
And a quart of wood stain
Make my house look so nice
Some pink gingham curtains
Shades to pull keep out the bright sun
Rugs beds and furniture
Air conditioner and stove
Food in the pantry
Soup cereal flour
Coffee and sugar
That'll start us a home
Or I'll stay here alone
Sleep in the corner
Under some blankets from my cart
That I found by the road
Then I'll keep warm
If, until, when you come

Yes an abandoned home can be sad like a homeless person. Great take on the image Jim! Hope all is well with you these days.
Oh, this...just heartwrenching. All the simple details are perfect.
The pink gingham curtains GOT me .... can tell you are waiting for Ms. Jim.
"If, until, when you come"...
No AC, no sugar ... then I might consider it.
Ha
I put half a small cylinder of brown sugar in my latte but can't remember spooning granulated. AC we need even in winter on some days. Not last week.
..
I could make a home anywhere....and have done in the 40-odd moves i've made in my life. Smiles.
"If, until, when you come" . . .
That touched my heart.
