A Place called HOME
 

I was the proverbial busy bee
Up in the attic down on my knee

Brush the piano feed the hare.
Tend the home with loving care.

To the market now, hitch a ride.
Water the hollyhocks on the side.

The fence an lawn were my pride.
So the kids an my hubby’s stride.

Walked at a clip an over the hill.
How fast it was I wonder still.

Surely sets to our east and west,
At HOME here, a guess at best.

My glasses I broke on that sill,
get em fixed, don’t have the will.

No ones been to see me for days
My sis when called, said she prays

See my hands, he’d tenderly hold,
gave me a solitaire, ringed in gold.

Wrinkled dry, parched with times.
Knobby; shakin, searching dimes.

Could you please do my bed?
Could you nurse have me fed.

O’ someone please do my shirts
Do someone, please draw the curts

We wet eyed rock an wait our turns
As nature cavorts an the candle burns
