The Unpeopled House - Dec. 23, 2023

it’s been a few months

since loneliness set in

the residence in need of fresh air   

a donation of greenery    cleanup

maybe some new clothes

nice coat or two

 

anything to pull someone

through the front door    

turn on the lights    

cook nice dinners    

maybe with candlelit smiles

wine and small talk

 

oh     wouldn’t that be nice

 

you know that glow a house gets

when it becomes a home
