Home to me

Home is in the trees, home is on the ground, home is in the ferns, you just have to look around Home is in my backyard, as the forest, the trees, and the mountains I feel at home when I see the beauty in nature I feel at home when I hear birds singing I feel at home when I taste the cold breeze of an icy glacier I feel at home when I touch the vines that are swinging I feel at home when I smell a scented wildflower I find my home in the lion’s courageous roar My home is within the raven, as her clever wit Home, I see in the graceful badger as he scurries about on the earth’s floor My home is at the fierce cry of the owl Home, I hear in the wolf’s calling howl Home, a weathered grassland, where I run and play Home, a beautiful coral reef, where I watch tropical fish swim in circles Home, a curious jungle, where I listen to jaguars hunt their prey Home to me is in nature and all its beauty What is home to you
