Empty House







The fertile soil was the love from which they came,



But now a drought is in the land--



The trees are barren and the fields lay bare,



The laughter of the children in the house



Are vague echoes now, and nothing more;



They did what their youth required,



They left, and in a little while



Their parents died.



The house is host to spirits and to ghosts--



Who wants to buy an empty house?
