Down into their basement one day
treasures there abound
a collection of life kept safe
on the bare earthen ground
China of family long gone from this earth
beautiful in boxes packed
some of this now part of my home
a piece of them carried on
So many things,
the stuff of our lives
handed down from age to age
kept because of the memory
the connection with them
but things alone nonetheless
