An old home
Finally back, but I want to leave
My sisters are screaming!
Finally, a dance I was once used too
Rusty in all things,
Like these dishes I’m sure no one has touched
But, I am a guest
But, no one cares
This bed couldn’t have possibly fit me!
But, it loosens where it needs too
I miss our old dog,
Which? We’ve seen a few come and go
Lola. Much needed at the foot of my bed.
Mother. We pass each other, little words
I’m back.
Youngest sister, let’s argue!
I’m far more advanced in the art of angering
Middle, shaking her head
In the middle of us, how fitting
My stomach is grumbling!
Finally, food my body was used too.
I love it all,
I hate it all,
Need more time to explore my old town
Need less time to recollect,
Let’s leave,
Let’s go back in time,
Let’s just call it what it is
An old home.
