Home?

Home is playing in a summer rain

a Friday night football game

horse shows on Saturday

and church on Sunday morning

Home is the smell of fresh cut hay

a velvet muzzle against my palm to lick the treats away

Home is not a place

a building

a city

or even a state

Home is a feeling

Home is goodnight kisses

breakfast in bed

Home is a sense of peace you can't find anywhere else

It's the sound of rain on an old tin roof

the chill of an autumn breeze mixing with the warmth of a hardwood fire

It's the taste of S'mores

and dressing up for Halloween

or decorating a Christmas tree

Home is laughter

dreams

memories

Home is love

Home is...

Home
