My Empty Home

My home empty nest, no chirps birds have gone away. Sometimes friends show up to party Only I know how happy I feel inside my heart. When grandkids come, in long awaited dreams, their plays and laughter serenades my empty heart.

awww...I know that joy you've expressed. I liked 'serenades my empty heart.' Grateful to hear you have grandchildren to fill the emptiness...I do not and sometimes the sadness is a bit overwhelming. Have a pleasant evening, Sara

Jay your Fibonacci is perfect. We only see our grandkids once a year because they live on the other side of the world buy I sure could relate to your joy when your grandkids come. I loved your poem. Beautifully worded.
