Neighbourhood
Neighbours come in many shapes
and conditions.
Some are helpful, some benign.
Some become friends for all time.
They're there when needed time
after time.
Some just to say hi.
Some will help out with grass
or snow.
Some come with flowers, a card
or just good wishes.
There is caring and sharing on
all property lines.
We all seem like family on this
avenue of mine.
