In my yard a hummingbird is sipping on a flower
While breezes through the old Mimosa sway

In my ear a dove is cooing in the morning hour
a Meadow Lark is welcoming the day

In my eye a butterfly writes "Peace" across the lawn
In my nose a fragrant rose perfumes the early dawn

In my heart a song of joy
put there by God alone

For in my yard
the love He gives makes this old house a home
This poem was published in our local newspaper.  They have a yearly Poetry contest.
