The Precious Home

My home is where I am truly free
My home has the precious family

My home is a simple vinyl structure with large oaks and flowering beds.
Shady lawn to play and work.
My evenings to enjoy. My home would not be a home without the spice of life,
my loves, my family.
Thanks be to the One who created the world and made the way of salvation. He
gave the precious family.

My home is a haven for bluebirds and nature.
My home is peaceful, I can assure!

What a lovely tribute to your home and family, Doris! And thank you for commenting "Pacific Ocean". Sometimes I am really missing the noise and smell of the Pacific having lived close for some years. And best of luck in the contest!...Gert
