Into The New Light.

Goldfinch60



Into your new house you step,

A place of bricks and mortar,

But the love that you have

With each other,

And with your sons,

Will soon turn that house

Into a home

Where enchantment thrives

Created by yourselves,

And will get better every day,

Every day of your lives.

 

Enjoy your days in your future,

As I have done

When you lived next to me.

Go forward into the light,

The wonderful light of your new lives

That will always be there for you.

    Good write Gold.
    They will remember you, though they won't want to remember my singing!

    wow, just amazes me there are still neighbours
    that have the time to build meaningful relationships
    in this chaotic and socially, disconnected modernity..
    another wonderfully wholesome reading treat, Andy
    thanks for sharing, hope you have a great weekend

      Thank you Mek, I always try to build relationships with neighbours as you may need their help one day.

        very wise! I'll heed your advise
        and try to make more of an effort;
        admittedly, it's a little harder in London
        but I can definitely, try to be more proactive..
        thank you!

        A really thoughtful gift. Something which will remind them of a really good neighbor and friend. Moreover such a piece, framed and wallhung is a constant reminder to have faith in human nature.... especially if one's new neighbors leave a little to be desired.

            "Will soon turn that house

            Into a home"
            It is a blessing to have you as a neighbour.
