Sonnet 2017 – A Fall Poem for Boomers

That time of year thou may’st ‘round here behold

When leaves are crisp and flowers a golden hue

And chillier nights in blankets ourselves we fold

Anticipating festivals with apples, and sweaters new.

Though leaves from trees above do fall each day

And lawns need special treatment for colder weather

These things don’t cause concern or much dismay

With yard maintenance we at Windsong need never bother.

Flocks of birds do migrate overhead

We see them from the courtyard where we rest

Unlike our winged friends we need not flee

Comfort we find in our luxurious nests.

Soup bubbles in the kitchen, aroma alluring

Guests standing, sitting, deep in conversation

Gathered in the space, friendships enduring

Comfortably enjoying our relaxation.

With homes designed with luxury in mind

Active Adults have found their niche indeed

Neighborhoods where we leave cares behind

And revel in the carefree lifestyles we lead.

Single-story homes with stepless entry

Garages home to cars and hobbies too

Bright and open floorplans with storage aplenty

Flex space for guests, a study, whatever we choose.

Windsong designs and builds for our generation

Where comfort and luxury provide our lives with ease

Homes that suit our needs and avocations

Welcome to Windsong – Where Life’s A Breeze!
