I inherited
my father and mother's
cherished furniture
a sparkling vibrancy
seems to have left
the shine
since my parents
passed away.

I really liked this a lot. It is so true, other people's possessions seem to lose their sparkle after they pass. Well done-

A cutting piece.
When people pass, the things they leave behind always seem to have a slightly unsettling air about them, don't they?

Take care and all the best,

Ben
