Where have all the people gone The neighborhood was once so strong We greeted all, while passing by It was our place, no one was shy There must be some, mistake in time Please bring me back, is this a crime The house I lived, has no more view I cannot see, through something new My neighbors homes, have disappeared Destruction reigned, it's all too weird Those roots I treasured, as a kid Have somehow been, removed or hid I can't relate, to what I see What have we done, to history? |

thepoeticplumber, Welcome to Passions  I liked the poem, it carries such a valuable point. It's a shame the way society has to change the enviroment. Sometimes it just doesn't seem like home anymore. Can't wait to see more  |

thepoeticplumber, It is so sad to see those landmarks disappear that stand so strong in our minds. I too wish at times that I could go back, but it is not the way of time.... and another welcome to you!!! |
