The Robinsons
Many generations gathered on the lawn of 29 Famet to celebrate Mum’s 80th.
Our House
This house is almost empty now
Home for five it used to be,
Many a laugh and many a row,
And now there’s only me.
Part of it’s bricks and mortar are we,
Part of its very being.
Chris a toddler when we came
Ant and Lynnes beginning.
A lot of laughter it has seen
A lot of sadness too.
Crowded it was and full of life
Clever we were, successful and bright
Gone now, there’s only me.
Lonely and empty it must feel,
After years of life lived through,
I wonder who will take it on
When at last I’m dead and gone
And there’s not even me.
