It's a lovely Autumn evening
AS I sit on the cool garden wall
And my mind is off somewhere
as l listen to the hoot of the owl.
I observe it's very quiet here
Not like evenings used to be.
This once was the time of day
All the neighbors we did see.
The children were all at play
Hide and seek or kick the can.
Adults chatted the day away
while the kids laughed and ran.
But now everything has changed
We don't get to know each other
Or to be a neighborhood family
It has now become a bother.
The children mostly stay in doors
Playing video games I would guess
When they should be out playing
Because that's what kids do best.
I say hello to a stranger walking by
She says not a word, just nods in reply.
I see she lives just three doors down
That I did not recognize her, is not a lie.
Night is approaching and getting cool
And everything is so dark and still
I head indoors it's been a good day
I'll return tomorrow if it's God's will. |
