THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Home is a garden of beautiful
flowers.
Home is a playground with love
keeping score.
Home is a haven of rest and con
tentment.
Home is a harbor on joy's gold
en shore.
Language could never portray its
endearment; :
Only the heart knows what
Home truly means.
Memory treasures the pleasutes
of childhood,
Taking us back to its radiant
scenes.
Home is the secret of manhood’s
achievement.
Home is our comfort when
shadows draw near,
Home its_ a temple of endless devo
ion,
Growing more sacred with each
passing year.
—OO. Lawrence Hawthorne.
