My Home

My home's not made of brick
  or even frame or wood
She's been known to move around
  from locations bad to good

She required no down payment
  I never got a mortgage statement
Yet for comfort and for loveliness
  She tops, by far, all other nests

For my home is where your heart does beat
  ~ My Paradise on Earth ~ so sweet

If only we could all do away with costly payments and make our nets in trees! Love this poem, Gershon, and the last two lines made me smile. Thanks for the lift. Hugs, Carolyn
