Sometimes it is what it is, but no more.

So very beautiful it was.

Long winding staircase.

Skylights, a vaulted ceiling.

Magnificent kitchen,

Sunken greatroom,

Many huge bedrooms,

More bathrooms than a few.

Spacious closets galore.

All the amenities one

Could really ever want.

But the one thing that

The house did not have,

For the whole family

That lived there,

Was that the house

Was never, ever a home!
