HOME IS WHERE I AM

HOME IS WHERE I AM

Nothing's better than family warmth,
put all the world's wood in your fire place,it'd surely drive out the cold,but won't replace what can't be bought:
Laughter, tears, memories and aromas
from mama's kitchen.
Looking at the pictures on the walls,
journeying back to childhood,
where innocence wrapped her arms around you...
And mama was your best friend.

Every picture tells a story...
Oops, that's when I lost my front teeth.
That's me and my brother..*dabs a tear
that's me and my daddy....*looks away.
And now, that's my mama...looking resplendent...
See my sisters too, they looked so tiny behind this glass.

Mama says food's ready,
now, I know that noise was my stomach rumbling and not the music from my phone.
Home is where you can eat whatever and however you want.
Home is where you can eat and forget about some table manners.
Home is where meals on the dinner table end with stories of the past and promises of the future.
Home is the vault of secrets, laughter, love and tears.

Put another wood in the fire.
Drive away the cold,
but don't interrupt family warmth.
No matter how far you are,
no matter how long you've been away,
home is where your heart really is.
Home is where your mother waits.
Home is where your woman, your wife waits with a heart that holds you.
Home is where your kids are never ashamed to call you dad or mom.

Home is where I now am.
