Grandpa’s house
In summers
Was heaven
For brothers
Located
In the lap
Of nature
Far from men
One could hear
The sea roar
The waves clash
And birds sing
We played there
We grew up
We forgot
We moved on
But the house
Stood there
And kept our
Memories
Now it feels
Lonely
Without the songs
Of children.
