A Place Called Home

As the tree branches sway back and forth
Imagine how much the scenery is worth
To sit down in a yard with an outrageous view
Everything that has grown makes the house look new

The smell of the flowers is all you would need
For the place to feel right at home indeed
Family, friends could make it a happier place
By surrounding you with their pretty face

One big yard for all the children to play
Neither of us would want it any other way
Can't think of a better place to start out right
Having you running home to me every night

This would not be hard to find
For I have somewhere particular in mind
Now that I have got your full attention
Was there something I forgot to mention

The love I feel for you will always be
I can only hope you feel the same towards me
Picturing us together for years and years
Will help us cope better with our fears

                                                         Josie-Marie Curson
