Broken windows
Shattered sunlight
long lost dreams&fallen walls
Failed ambitions
Dropped like plaster
Ghosts of children
Haunt the halls

Nice Garry. This little piece works quite well IMO.
Cheers. & short as always.
I read the first line and immediately Nina Simone singing 'I think its goin' to rain today' came to mind. this is a super haunting piece - going into my favourites
Thank you. I got inspiration from the thene song of "Broken". Which i think is by Rabdy Newman,
Yes - the same song: Broken Windows etc by Nina Simone which I think is by far the best version although many have sung it. Listened to it yesterday on YouTube
Yes she sings the "broken" theme tune too. Excellent

Your few well chosen words speak volumes ... paint a nostalgic picture. I like this type of poem, well done, Garry!
Good write, it says so much in so few words.
