Brick and Mortar

Art by Kevin

This is my entry for Beginning At Last NTT 4/25/24 challenge

Brick and mortar it is no more

Shiny glass and electric doors

Replace what was once

A place of hope

Of waiting rooms

Filled with smoke

Saw babies born

And elders die

All in the blink of a tearful eye

Lost like a job

I once had

The memories of it all

Live in my mind, ironclad

No shiny glass could withstand

That which I cannot hold in my hand

The place where my life ended

As well as it began

I love words. And animals. Photography and fedoras. Welcome. And stay awhile.
