Estate Sale
By Clinton Van Inman

Sunday’s best looked untouched
As if saved for a day that
Never did come
Those fine china dishes
Piled under some obscure
Painting of a farmhouse
And piles of old photos
All unrecognizable
Next to miscellaneous items
That must have once been treasured
But today only marked down
An additional twenty percent.

 



One Response to “Estate Sale”

  1. Good job on the memory lane of someone elses treasures now being sold.
