Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Home is where the heart is
Home Sweet Home by persevere
Home writing prompt entry

Home is more than merely a place
Comfort prevails and it just feels right
Travel may take one far and wide
But that front door is a welcome sight

Paintings hang in every room
Masterpieces they 're certainly not
They please our eye and give us joy
If seen as bad taste we care not a jot

Photographs framed, of every size
Hold the attention of passersby
Book cases grown with treasured tales
Fiction, non- fiction and science-fi

Every article has a story to tell
A biscuit barrel from days of yore
A weathered spoon of aged oak
A cowrie shell from a distant shore

Home is more than merely a place
The French have only a phrase for it
"Chez nous" just seems to welcome you
Like a candle ever lit


Writing Prompt
Write a poem in any style on the theme 'home'.

That's it! No other rules... just stick to the theme!

Author Notes
Thanks to Elicia for that welcome front door.
