When You pass by a sad looking house, remember it was once someones beloved home.
It was once a home filled with laughter, tears, the smell of home cooked meals.
Do you pass by one?

Do you pass by one?
Under the porch eaves little girls had a tea party
even the kitty cats called in home
they played in the green grass the surrounded the brick home
the lives of a family were the center of that home
hope dreams wishes
were imagined on the porch
There are many of them we pass
who peered out those windows?
who walked the steps?
who cared for the lawn?
who sat in their wheelchair on the porch and spoke to the passerby?
who was pulled away from the picture window by her sister just before it broke during a tornado?
over 100 years has passed.........
some stained glass is still there, some has disappeared.
families gathered on those steps
flowers were planted
Stop and look and imagine sometime
The sad of now once was happy then.
Please look at me, don't throw me away.
Preservation.
The first home was of my Grandmother's cousin.
The second home is of my Great Grandfather's sister Emma.
How I wish both would be preserved for a new family to enjoy once again.
