a dress, a bauble,
a rusty mouse trap.
A dusty old volume
you close with a snap.

A shoe, a hat
and broken toys.
dirty old objects
long gone joys.

The lightswitch is turned
off with a click
and once more there is silence
in the well loved attic.

NOTE: this is a poetic reminder to look things up in the archives, you never know what you might find in the dusty 'attics' of piptalk. Go on, give a try, you know you want to.

I've always been one to go back in the archives, searching, rustling through...and always delighted!

It's nice seeing that others recognize the treasures that wait in store...in the archives!

There sure are some wonderful poems in there and thank you for reminding folks in such a lovely poetic way.

May a handshake, smile, kiss or a hug be the best present you give or receive this year.
