Home Sweet Home
A Poem by
Marie Harrison
A poem about home.
Home Sweet Home
My childhood home
Is cherished
Memories filled with
Silver and gold
And sometimes pure cold.
No one told me
It would go with me
Where ever I go
When I roam from
Town to town
I carry it with me
I open the door
Each night when
I go to sleep
And dream.
I can’t shake
What I learned
And what I didn’t
Learn inside
My honeycomb
I can’t stop
Moaning
About That
Home.

Home is where the hearts is... nothing wrong with having roots and flying... for our past gives us identity and our journey defines us.

Nicely written. I don't think I ever had a home in that sense. I never have dreamed about any of the places I've lived.
