Highland Manor Coveted Hideaway

Temporary salient sunny solitary sight

does dole divine delight,

asper this dada to imbibe

delicious draught when uptight

fraught, viz sunkist radiant photons

packets of energy with

life giving hefty might

to warm formerly frost bitten cockles,

which secluded niche bracketed by slight

recess, where perpendicular brick walls

converge, forming mini refuge

beckoning tours ruly forthright,

this solitary scribe savored moment

of peace simply lollygagging excite,

hence lawn chair and reading material,

I did not schlep in vain,

cuz the others didst ordain

to succumb, resign,

and quit living sadness quite plain

(reed depressed churly

elderly lonely, utterly bane

residents), each whose private engineer

within their respective uber driver trundled

each individual along nostalgic train

on this pitch perfect in the main

spring day, they nebulously,

melancholically, and lethargically lain

abed flipping remote go'n channel

surfing and fishing, or

time age faded memories raised cane,

now offer bitter cold comfort,

where grievous frostbitten former halcyon salad

days of yore elapsed replaced with mundane

decades analogously pain

full as chilblain

exhibiting feeble gumption to live

dogged effort to die dost drain

ability (to bow out, i.e.

waiting for Godot)

each oldster fragile as porcelain

curmudgeon cast as deadened thespian

while days of their lives issue sad quatrain

rewind/replay within cobwebbed brain,

one despairing luxury of escape

afforded by venturing via imagination

to join deceased family,

where eternal happiness doth never wane.
