My Home
Of
all the houses in the world
The
one that 1 love the best
Is
that in which I wake and play
And
lay me down to rest.
My
father built it by his toil,
My
mother makes it home.
You
cannot find a happier place
No
matter where you roam.
The rooms are
clear, bright and fair
With pictures,
books, and toys
And food, and
clothes, and beds, and chairs
Of all us boys
and girls.
So full of love
and joy it is,
So safe and
bright and warm,
I would not go
too far from it
Lest I should
come to harm.
(Henry
Hallam Tweedy)
