Spring Cleaning

Foggy difficult memories

Were swept under the rug

Wonderful moments 

were placed neatly on

a book shelf in DVD boxes

Above all that 

On the highest shelf was

Stupidest of worries

In a small box 

New and bright smiles 

Of loved ones

Are stringed together

like fairy lights

Fears I don't recognize

Anymore

In a photo album

Given a label 

"Progress"

Sweet small and simple

Times with you 

Are everywhere around

In this small place

At finally feels 

Like a home
