photo taken by @wakeupkitty host of this contest on behalf of @freewritehouse.

This was his storeroom. An attic to most.
Holding the treasures of my lifelong host.
You see my dad, my closest friend.
I was with him till the very end when angels came
from lofty height to retrieve his soul one wretched night.
Years would pass before I could face
coming to his hiding place to remove things
mostly rusty and old yet treasures to him.
His silver and gold.
Tears falling on his dusty floor.
Knowing I would see no more.
The man who hugged me when I cried
from day one till the day, he died.
Gone are the tools, the books, the chairs.
All obtained at flea markets and fairs.
Gone are the dressers, the junk good or bad.
Gone long ago mom and now - my dad.

Friend @jpiekiel, a poem drawn from the soul. Where memories and longing stand out. I liked, above all, your way of expressing feelings. Your poem describes the image clearly. Congratulations, greetings and good vibes.

🍀🤗🍀

Amigo @jpiekiel, un poema extraído del alma. Donde resaltan los recuerdos y las añoranzas. Me gustó, sobremanera, tu forma de expresar sentimientos. Tu poema describe la imagen claramente. Felicitaciones, saludos y buenas vibras.

I had some trouble picking up the cadence of the poem, but the more I read it, the more the words came alive.

You forgot to use the tag #pic1000

Greetings @wakeupkitty

Hi,
It's probably because I am still very novice at posting anything here. I put it above the photo, I tried to put it in tags where it asked but it returned that I could not use a special character. I'll figure this out, but thanks for the feedback. 😃John

You will figure it out and if not, no problem. I don't care about reading more than once.

Good luck. 🍀💕

Thanks. Matter of fact - I am just now figuring out how to reply to comments. I don't live on the hive like some others so I'm sure I miss a lot of content. Anyway, thanks for the nice comments.

I try to answer comments and read/comment 3 posts if I am present. My time is limited. 🍀💕
