Modest home’s hidden treasures

Forgotten for many years

Covered in dusty cobwebs

Docked at legacy’s lost pier

Climbing rickety ladder

Stepping into lifetime past

Lonely attic’s been waiting

Ship’s sails secure at each mast

Granted permission to board

Organized in tidy rows

Yesteryears displayed with love

Past voyages say hello

Quartermaster, our tour guide

Opening one box, then more

Years from long ago, shine bright

Emotions begin to soar

Resurrected memories

Each surprise follows with more

Connecting life’s precious links

Echoes from past come ashore
