Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home

Though home sweet home seems far away
You’ll find it where the mind holds sway
That dwelling place behind the face
Of the feelings that you screen
Bit by bit through every trace
As you compose that childhood scene
With a sense of inner space
That finds a way to where you’ve been
Where it seems that home was real
A place that you could truly feel
Through the very merest veil
Drawn across your home sweet home
Like purest glass between you come
Where reflection tells the tale
Of time invented by your mind
To keep you here with humankind
Where in motion you must dwell.
