The household being small
being only two of us in all
that has grown to such size now in a way
after the children have moved away
there being calm and composure all throughout
with nothing of a noise both in and out
the guests coming and going in a flow
ever being a floating crowd in the go
entertaining them now and then with refreshments
that has been our alibi for years without amendments
being so greatly all the time altogether
the sudden influx of occupants rather
mystifies both of us to the core
keeping us baffled all the more
getting adjusted to the new trend
forces us to lose ourselves in a bend
without showing it out in full strength
manage the whole affair in a breadth
that much more not revealed to anyone
kept within our hearts all in one.
