Notes About The Poem

Painting by Edward Hopper

Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home


Everyone should have 
a home to love
a place so safe
morning mist, blankets thick

When we wander out
in the world today
as visitors, manners politely abided by
never moaning insults loudly cried

If you wish to cajole 
and complain
lets send you off to bistro stars
on the very next star-ship plane

travelers should always smile
treading softy on Persian carpet
quiet is 
the voice that observes new ways

thus deceit discarded, buried
