I Am Home

The wind marauds away outside Rain beats its staccato drum on the window pane Let the tempest do its worst. It can’t touch me here. I am home. The fireplace casts its warm cozy glow Shadows dance against the wall. Sleep inducing warmth suffuses me. Relaxing me into the Sandman's waiting embrace I am home. Here is my sanctuary. Here is my safe place. Here is my shelter from the world. Here is where I most love to be. I am home.
