I'll get the lights.

 

No pen, no paper no envelopes

no postmen walk this way –

There isn’t a tomorrow

no news of yesterday,

No bulb within the desk lamp

no music left to hear –

All quiet on the water front

the bars all void of cheer,

Street lamps cast no shadows

the lost no longer roam

The losing team is on the bus

so silent - heading home,

A scarf left on the bleachers

half covered by the snow

No letters in the mail today

there’s no one left I know.

Well then, time to make new friends. But I would blame it on the postage cost! USPS - Bah Humbug. Better learn to text.
