Home: My Favorite Place on Earth

My favorite place to be is home. It has been said that home is the place where they have to take you in!  Home to me is a haven and a sanctuary of peace.  Coming home  is the highlight of the
day.  (And everyone always seems glad to see me come!)

In honor of my love for home, I have written a few limericks. I was inspired by Mare, writer of Adventures in the Ballpark, after reading her limerick post.  I have no desire to write a poem, but limericks seemed like something fun to try.

My first limerick is a sentimental one, entitled, Haven

I’ve made my little house a home

From it I never want to roam

It’s cozy and warm

Filled with love and charm

A haven of rest is my home

My next limerick was written using my sister-in-law, Cora, for inspiration.  She uses the word, "chill," a lot.

Chill

Coming home to me is a thrill

Oh, I never can get my fill

 I walk through the door

Kick shoes to the floor

Relax in my chair and just chill

I love using the words aroma and fragrance!  The imagery of those words just spell home to me.  I give you:

 Aroma of Home

The fragrance of my home is sweet

Flavored by love, oh it’s a treat

Laughter, sweet caring

Stories for sharing

Family makes home life complete.

A poet I'm not, but a lover of home I am.  Where is your favorite place to be?
