cherished they once were
delightful enjoyment
rocking back and forth
~~~~~
children’s laughter heard
joyfully filling a room
merrily ridden
~~~~~
abandoned lonely
darkened alley now their home
they no longer rock
small ones quickly out grew them
hoping they would be rescued
~~~~~
joy they still could bring
to children with very little means
treasured once again
