Table chair sits empty
Rocking chair lays still
Anywhere I cast my eyes,
Millions of bottles of pills.

Bowl of cheese-poofs smaller
House itself seems bigger
I know I should be grateful, but
If God could just work quicker...

We cannot watch a movie
Who'd make our special snack?
If I never taste that food again...
Mere idea I want to smack

Gramma's house seems different
With Grandpa gone away
Healing in the hospital,
He'll be back again someday.

He'll be back again someday?
