Through bleak
abandoned rooms
once laughter rang,
now only wind
moans its company.

So true,and yet if walls could talk! Great observations.

WONDERFUL!!!!
I often ride by homes which now are in decay and wonder what families lived there and was this home a happy home long ago.

Nice
I hate to see a good building let deteriorate.
I bought one in Knoxville built in 1890. Will be a second home.
