Home

They say home is where the heart is
but I tend to disagree.
I think it’s where you lay your coat
where your happy and carefree.

Mixing bowls can not combine
negative and optimistic;
hoping they’d come to visit
to take away pessimistic.

It’s more than just the words
or the pictures on the wall.
More than just the laundry
that trails down the hall.

Home can be anywhere
can mean different things.
One only has to look around 
at what family and love brings.
