Do a crime or commit a sin
At home they have to take you in.
Saint with feet of clay, or just plain Joe
This is the place where you can go
To be loved and welcome
Though you seldom
Think of it because
It has always been there.
Home is where the heart is.
Where people are warm and true.

by Jim Jordan
Happy
outside the old farmhouse
a white glow behind me.
Summer winds pat my forehead cool,
winds whose higher cousins cause
When I feel the east breeze caress my hair
watch the red sun sink quietly low
smell the soft flower of spring in the air
Being called home
I lay in this bed, so much going through my head.
I see my loved ones who have gone before me, I must choose
Home is Beyond the Horizon.
I'm leaving Home
tomorrow when
the sun rises.
I'm telling you
this now,
because
I know
how much
A dusty road gives lessons of perspective
Vanishing in the distance to a point
A lazy propeller makes a droning buzz
A grumble
