Neighbors’ grandchildren
Arriving Thanksgiving morn
Stampede down the hall

Lovely the patter
Not-so-little feet clatter
A nostalgic sound.

   Hello Ina,
   I live in an apartment and your poem resonates – both figuratively and literally 🙂
   Peace,
   Eric

     Hi Eric,
     Brilliant decision. Nice to know you are an apartment dweller, too. I find it is a bit like Heloise living in the Plaza (is that the hotel?) with a pinch of A Gentleman in Moscow.

     Take care,
     Ina

   P.S. It is the Plaza Hotel and Eloise, not Heloise.

   Sometimes I hear kids out in the hallway of my building too! I like when they’re laughing 🙂

    As always you say so much with just a few words.

      That’s why I write Haiku. It causes me to focus otherwise I can be quite verbose.
