[bodytext] => Fifty years of living here Pack it all away Not much room for anything At this place I’m gonna stay I put my kids through college I just put my woman in the ground They say I shouldn’t be living here When there’s no one else around …. Fifty years of my life Packed in boxes to be hauled away Pop, you know we love you It’s just the way things are today ….. The house looks bigger empty But, even empty it’s still my home The lines drawn on the pantry wall That measured how fast the kids had grown Late night kitchen conferences And those fire side debates The squeaky step that let us know When the kids got in to late …. Fifty years of my life Packed in boxes to be hauled away Pop, you know we love you It’s just the way things are today ….. Living with people my age They say you’ll like it, If you give it a try Lot’s of things to talk about As we wait our turn to die They say they’ll bring the grand kids They say that they’ll call me all the time It’s the best decision for everyone Awe pop, you’ll do just fine …. Fifty years of my life Packed in boxes to be hauled away Pop, you know we love you It’s just the way things are today [comments] => 11 [counter] => 185 [topic] => 43 [informant] => dc [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
