A HOUSE ON QUAIL

 

I once lived in a house, on quail,

But the house burned down –

I tried to put it out, but I failed!

Oh! Yes, it burned to the ground!

We lost pretty much everything –

Looking back, I just wonder why?

I’m still alive – so I don’t complain!

And little good it does to cry –

My heart is still filled with guilt,

As thoughts race through my mind!

It was like watching memories wilt,

And only helpfulness I could find –

I once lived in a house, on quail,

But regrets never serve one well!
