Luscious' Poetry
Hidden
Neighbours
The quiet street
A patter of feet
Running inside
Questions come to mind
I stand outside
Inside, what would
I find?
Different homes, different
situations
All sorts of information
If walls could talk
What clues could they
drop?
What could they be?
What is it they see?
A home of despair
Where no one cares
Cupboards are bare
Where love is rare
A home of deceit
Anger is their heat
One person wins, the
other is defeated
One loved one has just
been beaten
A home of fear
A loved one so dear
Hides in a closet
An evil force it has
met
Loss of self esteem
Needs to be redeemed
Unanswered questions
Lost in the confusion
All these secrets
All, involved, frets
What if someone finds
out?
And asks "What's this
all about?"
A home of sadness
Where someone has an
illness
Family, close and under
stress
Love is the test
All the worries and
commotion
The insights and emotions
The innocent are pure
Looking for a cure
Not all situations
are the same
The conversation is
tame
Communication is open
Nothing lost, lots
to gain
A home of happiness
All minds are at rest
Lots of laughter
Smiles have been mastered
A home of honesty
All words are said
with sincerity
Hugs are shared
Within a family who
cares
Lest we not forget
I leave you with this
thought:
Love yourself first
Love we all thirst
Stop... Look... Smell...
the flowers
They You can love others
