The room is empty without you here
The music is dull without you near
The world has lost its luster without you dear
I wish that you were here.
Without your presence everything is austere
Without your laughter there is no cheer
Without your voice the silence is clear
I wish that you were here.
There is a chair in the room where you lingered
Rubber ducks stacked on a mat
The sunshine streams through the bare window
I really wish you were here.
Oh, I had not realized those were ducks… and the story you tell makes me think there’s even more I originally missed in this image prompt! This poem makes me wish s/he hadn’t left! Well done
Thank you so much for your comment! I am truly not sure if they were ducks on the chair and I did not feel like grabbing the ol’ bifocals…so I ran with it!
