(For My WIFE)

Home can be
Anywhere
Any place
Any town or
City
Any size or
Shape
A palace
Or a two room
Flat
Home isn’t
Four walls
A kitchen
And a bath
Home only
Exists
When it is
Filled with
Love
Filled with
Life
And
Laughter
A haven where
Warmth and safety
Prevails
Where storms and
Pestilence
Can’t reach
Home is where
Simple things
Are important
And big things
Are taken in stride
Home is when
Two
Defies mathematics
Where two hearts
And two souls
Become
One
Home is where
Love can
Flourish
And sadness is
Banished
Home is an
Intangible
That defies
Definition
Except by those
Who
Feel alive
Because they are
Home
Where anything
And everything
Can happen
Dreams can come
True
And life is
Joyous
Simply because
There is
A place called
Home
