IN SEARCH OF A HOME

THE KIND OF HOME I`M LOOKING FOR
NEED NOT BE A PALACE
BUT A PLACE FILLED WITH LAUGHTER
NO CROSS WORDS OR MALICE.
FOUR WALLS FILLED WITH LOVE
FROM CEILING TO THE FLOOR
WHERE NEVER IS HEARD A VENGEFUL WORD
AT THE CLOSING OF A DOOR.
NO SHRIEKS OR SHRILLS, NO FANCY FRILLS
NO FALSE AIRS AND GRACES

WHERE FEELING A NEED DOES NOT TURN GREED
NO FROWNS NOR SADDENED FACES.

NO TANTRUMS THROWN, NO BAD SEEDS SOWN
NO MELANCHOLY AIR
CHILDREN SINGING GRACEFULLY
NO TEARS NOR FEARS TO SHARE.
NO BAD NOR SAD TIMES, NO CALLOUS INNUENDOES
WHERE THE WARMTH OF THE SUN
ALWAYS SHINES THROUGH THE WINDOWS
WHERE DREAMS COME TRUE AND SO DO WISHES.
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE A HOME SUCH AS THIS IS ?
