"Home Is Where The Heart Is" - Original Poetry By Me


Home is where the heart is,
And my heart belongs with you,
In every place I wander,
And everything I do.

You've shown me so much magic,
So much beauty in this land,
We swim the seas and walk the shores,
Together hand in hand.

Some days I remember my old life,
That one in London town,
A life of stress and rainstorms,
It always got me down.

But you led me to the sunshine,
To Brazil and all it's charms,
We travel seeing everything,
And wake up in each other's arms.

Echoing Debs - a great poem. How I wish I could write such poetry like this. Mine seems to be rather depressing, usually.

Take care!
