[hometext] => Just something I put together about my life a several years ago and a place that gave me so much help.
[bodytext] => ELMWOOD ESTATES If I get down on my luck again There`s a place where I can go There I`d met so many friends When my life was down so low I moved into Elmwood Estates In hopes to start my life anew I was all alone without a mate I didn`t know what I would do In financial crisis I was stuck A disabled widow at the time I was really down on my luck Thought I would lose my mind A place for the disadvantaged A place to get upon your feet Until the day you can manage Without sleeping on the street With many people all around Getting adjusted took me time But soon many friends I found Although I didn`t have a dime Soon neighbors I grew to know We became the best of friends To their apartments I would go They were there in thick or thin Till you`ve been in this position You don`t know what you`d do You may be forced in transition When you`re all alone and blue Don`t stick you`re nose in the air Low income housing never rate As a place which does not care You may need Elmwood Estates Written By Thelma Shutters (c) 8-17-03 Dedicated to Kitty & Serena [comments] => 2 [counter] => 184 [topic] => 55 [informant] => thelmalou [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )
