Our Old Cabin

The summer cottage,
Worn and tired
Like all the children who
Played themselves out in her.

So many memories and laughter.

The silence cannot bring justice
But only a queer sense
Of misunderstanding.

Emptied of all it’s treasures,.
Clinging to it’s original form,
The stained carpet and wood stove
Are the odd marks of affection
That rest,

Like a pierced ear
Of a lifelong and
dedicated slave.

Again, most excellent writing!
I love your word usage - its deliberate and very clever.
I suspect you've been writing for a while ...

Like a pierced ear
Of a lifelong and
dedicated slave.
