Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
a house; not quite a home

A chapter in the book CSP: A Collection of Poems

Something is Missing...

by Sixteezkid



New curtains hung today
draping each side with a view
of snow-laden spruces

Oriental rug dresses foyer
Complements colors to each chair and vase

Fabrics and furniture fill once-empty spaces.
A few niches remain void

Surveying each detail
a sadness prevails-
I am alone
admiring aesthetics.
A house, not a home

I don't know the difference between prose and free verse. So any comments are very much welcomed. I haven't written this way before.
UPDATE: Well, it's been honed and honed with the help of a dear poet friend. Still trying to get there. Thanks Jazh!!
