45 Barkwin, Etobicoke

By HEESUN KOH - February 27 2024

By HEESUN KOH - February 27 2024

45 Barkwin, Etobicoke, a place in my heart,
Where moments of love and life were shared.
In February this year, briefly I stayed,
June to October, with joy, I swayed.

With Julia and Noa I did reside,
Preparing for Noa and Tim’s wedding.
We chose the dress and a venue so gorgeous,
Decorations and gifts with our hands.

Gratitude to the guests, food to select,
Visiting in-laws, our plans we’d reflect.
This place held meaning, so deep and true,
We shared moments; we’d happily pursue.

With memories woven, it’s a sweet, sweet home.
Where our hearts discovered so much more.
Daughters, my treasures, we could find joy,
Each moment is a gift, a smile on our face.

Ever
