My final adventure

The unused flour
for unmade cakes
I threw that out today

The fancy china
and crystal glasses
the family silver too

I've lasted too long
all my family is gone
my children too

I'm but a ghost now
locked in a little room
looked after by strangers

All but forgotten
by any family that remains
yearning for my final adventure
