Where now sits a house
There were trees and shadows and things in the night
Where now sits a house
I would imagine creatures and could see birds
Where built a foundation
Sunlight now hits - birds have moved on
Where walls now stand
There are windows looking out over an absence of trees
There is a roof deflecting rain and bushes leading to a
door
Where a lawn now lays
Memories of a forest slip away
In the distance an ice-cream truck plays a happy tune
