There's a fine line between a packrat and a serious family historian.

As I climb to my attic place,
What comes to mind is
"Free up space".
What's stored up there
Is beyond compare.
I'm ready to wrestle dusty air.
Family this, school that
unpacking loads of labeled loot-
Am I just a packrat?
Decluttered, feeling free-
boxes ready for someone's
shopping spree!
My attic is a hidden room of clutter but thanks to dedicated time,
I have lessened my load of days-gone-by treasures.
What's in your attic?
