Found a poem today


I was going through and deleting a bunch of photos from my phone...I need to delete a whole lot more!  But that is not the point.  I came across a poem...I don't know where I got it or if I found it...I can find no information on the author. But it fits so well the thoughts that goes through my mind when I pass/photograph old houses.


I hope you can read it...if not you should be able to click and open in a new tab and then expand the view.

I ran across so many memories...just on my phone.  I hate to think how long it would take to go through all my photos!

  4. That is a nice poem. It perfectly describes old abandoned houses.
    I used to have a ton of pictures on my phone but now that they all go to google photos I delete them after I've used them for my blog.

  10. When I see old abandoned homes I often wonder about who may have lived there and the lives they led. It is sort of sad to see an old home looking so forlorn and lonely - the poem sums it up perfectly.

  11. The poem fits perfectly for old houses.
    I don't save any pictures on my phone. I delete them after I put them on my computer and even delete them if I have them on my blog.
