Every house has a voice
The cries in the middle of the night
The slamming of doors and the pounding of sneakers
The car keys in his pocket for the first time
 
The click of her first high heels 
The silence when they are all gone
 replaced by
The sound of your own thoughts as you begin anew
Every house has a voice
and every voice has its time
Listen
And that's poetiquejustis 
There is a time for everything, and a season for every thing
 under the heavens
Ecclesiastes 3:1
