Goodbye, sweet Kirkland house.
In the outskirts of Kirkland do thee dwell.
How we will miss thee and look back fondly
at our memories so swell.
May thy lush, green grass
continue to entice passers by.
The deck that Michael slaved to build -
we fare thee well, good bye.
Thy granite enhanced fireplace,
a beauty in this land.
New flooring that took three weeks to lay,
a mantel carved by hand.
Dear Master Bath! Thine heated floors
and jetted tub cause mine eyes to fill!
Never fear, we keep thee near to
reproduce in Creek of Mill.
Many trips to SoDo did
we make for cabinets, counter tops.
Glass tiles and accessories
so much time spent at the shops.
Six long months we slaved to
perfect thee, kitchen we hold dear.
Stainless steel appliances,
for thee we shed a tear.
Thou will always be found in our hearts,
dear first home of ours.
Renters will take good care of thee,
Thine walls will not be marred.

You gave a great goodbye to a great lil' house!
It is bitter/sweet to move into a bigger house. More room, but then you hafta start over with making it yours.
sob, sob, sob...
I loved your Kirkland house, and I will keep it in my heart too.
