Spare are the twenty five locks and latches, all grey;
Off color wooden boxes, with lids and hinges installed;
Book club’s material, nostalgic souvenirs on display;
Caps, shiny crests, models, throughout the home walled;
Experienced rainy days, vibrant nights n’ rainbow sunrise;
With sound friendships like diamonds adding to wealth;
Snowfalls, hot climate, dust storms, sea- tides on rise;
Best diagnostics and treatments with hi- spirits n’ health;
Blessed having favourite meals with family each a day;
Movies, Music, gardening n’ cherishing past to relax;
Care of parents n’ grand- kids keeps worries at a bay;
Veterans and entrepreneurs on avenues and tracks;
PAF honored dignity and pride in and out;
Thanks for grooming the raw into substance;
Indebted one is for repaying and spout;
Labbek, we are here for any such occurrence;
