This
house was once a teaming, screaming,
Rowdy loud menagerie.
Sometimes it seemed a thousand feet were
Pounding floor from dawn to dusk.
At times my own voice cracked as I related
My displeasure with
The maddening annoyance
Singing, ringing in my ear.
Praying for a moment, just one
Minutes peace to calm my nerves.
Wondering if it would have been
Wiser to be celibate.
Settling disputes with the diplomacy of
Solomon. Finding commonality to
Wash away all doubt and fear.
Now there's such a peaceful calm
Surrounding every moment that
I feel as though my life is truly blessed.
And yet at times I find myself reflecting
On the sweetness of the life we knew
Before our empty nest.
