Home

My home:

Home is a place of peaceful solace
to lay aside the long day passed 
settle down to be with family at last

Home is a place where the tea kettle steams
Where herbal melodies sing sweet dreams
As delightful scents rise from quaint cups

Home is a place of education
learning priorities and dedication
Collecting great thoughts and ideas

Home is a place of roaring gender
where mother and I aim to please
and father never looks to appease 

Home is a place of warm delight
Fire crackling in the midst of night
Blankets spread throughout the room

Home is a place of love and care
Helping, sharing, and acting fair
Sick or well we work together

Home is a place of great triumphs 
Victory over the daily routines
Occasionally sharing in life's defeats

Home is a place for knowing God
Learning His word and finding Him in prayer
Fellowship of His love together we are

Home is a place I love to be
Dad, Mom, Christopher, and me
Whom I love and where I stay
