Home: A Double Sonnet
Home: A Double Sonnet
By ALLAN MILNER
Home is not a place
Not at all.
Home is not a thing
That can fall.
Home can be a hand
Resting on your shoulder.
Keeping you warm
When the nights grow colder.
Home can be a bed,
Soft and warm.
It may be lumpy,
But soon it will conform.
Home is many things.
Happiness, it all brings.
Hands, beds,
Even happiness,
It can all tumble
Into the abyss.
For many a person,
This nightmare
Is a real thing.
It is not fair!
There is a group
Called Habitat for Humanity
This is a group
Without vanity.
Habitat will aide
Families to find shade.
