Home Is

Home is as warm as a campfire in winter Where memories flow through the halls like water Held safely in place Secured by love Home is something that will never give me up. Home to me is helping my mom bake bread under the moonlight Laying on the grass, watching the stars so bright Home to me is a sanctum of safety and light. Home is where I can be as free as a lark Floating through the seas of life, as secure as an ark Where I can avoid danger’s jaws, snapping like a shark Where I do not feel obliged to make a mark Home is my flashlight in the dark.
