The sea looks like black velvet
As I drive along the bay
On this cold and windy night
The coastal lights help guide my way

Outside it's cold and uninviting
But here in my car I'm warm
Rain dances on the windscreen
As it heralds in the storm

The wind whips up a frenzy
As I drive on through the night
Soon I will reach my destination
And I will find a welcome light

But no matter what the weather
Or wherever I may roam
I'll always find much love and warmth
Within the confines of my home

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Sue, as Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz did say, "There's no place like home! There's no place like home!"

Lovely! Lovely! Lovely!

To good health, a warm hearth and a happy home!

Sue,
Perfect and a gorgeous picture too! Linda is right. Nicely done, as usual.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
