Notes About The Poem

Home Sweet Home


Home sweet home, a phrase that warms my heart,
Once I reflect on what it means to me.
My home is like a magnet...draws me in.
Enough when I'm away; take me back home.

So full of comfort broken in with life
Well used and shaped where all fits like a glove.
Enhanced with family that comes and goes,
Endearing me with memories of great
Together times that transfer home to love.

Home sweet home, a phrase that fills my soul;
One piece of heaven filled with happiness.
My home, the only place for me to be.
Enough when I'm away; take me back home.
