We're Back!

Youthful voices fill the house

In loud seeking, questing tones

Young boys demanding attention

Voices shatter silence, like stones.



Resting house now comes alive

Vibrating in every room

T.v. turned on, computer too

Dispelling any perceived gloom.



"I'm hungry. What can we eat?"

Resounds now unceasingly

Muffled voices slow down -stuffed mouths,

Are still heard, but decreasingly.



Back to normal, the old house

Regains its tolerant air.

As youth has filled it up again

And it has buoyed spirits to spare.
