This is written on the day my brother Ken and I sell his home in Pike County, Georgia – filled with memories!
Goodbye, Spring Road
Bittersweet closing
So long, Spring Road Property
We shan’t forget you!
Shell of memories
Wonderful and sad
Three dogs buried here
Tranquility farm
Eighteen acres of peaceful
Respite from the world
Fresh water springs where
Dogs walked, lapped refreshing drink
Splashed, played together
A Weimarauzer
Best dog ever, Feivel – was
Born on your front porch
Marriage and divorce
New career and mother’s death
Pasture overgrowth
You offer more peace
A young family coming
To bring you new life
Bittersweet closing
So long, Spring Road Property
We shan’t forget you!
Oh, what a sweet poem of this property full of stories. Just snippets of all these events. It makes me think myself of all the properties that have been part of my family.
