“Home”

Dame Barbara on Nov 28, 2009

There is no place like home.

Home is where my strength resides.

Home is where my time abides.

My favorite place in the world.

A place I can lie back and unfurl.

Close to family and all their love,

all that I hold dear, and can’t get enough of.

Home is my sanctity, sanity, and reality.

Some would say I am a recluse,

but in my home problems fail to produce.

I am happiest in the safety of these walls.

Here, stress never calls.

I will stay in the place I call home,

and behind these walls continue to roam.
