A Home

A Home A home stands on the foundation of a true love that stays From a family creating warm memories that live in echoes within its walls The smiles are placed in pictures hung up so elegantly in display Precious moments cherished, exist inside frames to show the beauty of them all A home will rest still upon blooming flowers that mother used to grow Spreading their perfumes as if they were sent From the life in memories she embraced years ago Released by the side of a home that still stands from her presence A home is truly where the heart still remains No matter how far we shall travel away A home is like a candle that continues burning its warm flame To rid the darkness that would blind us from coming back someday A home becomes that spark that once lit the embers of old fires Still to burn for the next generation to be Where their memories too shall be displayed on walls too admire In a home that becomes their legacy.
