Four White Walls trimmed in blue
Stand tall in a lawn of green
a ways away a white picket fence
to me this would be home

Outside the wooden front door
a welcome mat sits
flower pots upon each stepthe walkway clear

Just inside the front door
cedar floors shiney and new
Walls shimmering white
Chandelier above your head

Directly in front of you
Sadie barks
Roll over you say

Here is where the home is
This is my home
I do not really live there
That is my home in my heart

And if it had looks
thats what it would look like
or is it just the idolized idea

It is so good to have dreams.  I've found the trick to making them come true, is to turn them into goals.  Nice write, Kellie!

Kellie,
*BUMP*
Listen to Sunshine. She is a brilliant woman!
And Congratulations on 200!

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

Kellie, that's a very inviting home you have.
I liked those flower pots, on every step.

Flowers make me happy. So does poetry. I am very good at hiding my emotion and I really wish  I could let it shine through.
