My Home Outside My House
My house is not my home,
My ceiling is the sky,
The mountains are my walls
My art is clouds
My clutter is the grass,
The gorgeous bright flowers,
the weeds and the seeds,
Please may they flower
I have a Mother and a mom,
One who gave birth to me
both who hear, see & hold me
with them I am held,
never alone,
I can always find my own path -
Home,
Sometimes they push on me like the wind -
Sometimes a breeze and sometimes a blow,
but always, with love
So that I can grow.
My friends are the loons and racoons
The horses and bears oh how do they care?
Without them I could not face my own dares
My sink is the ocean where my emotions flow
In like waves, sometimes in moments and sometimes days
Out like the rivers and into a lake
Oceans of power
thoughts do they make
My floor is the dirt, pebbles, and rocks.
My fireplace is not powered with your toxic gas,
but the volcanoes erupting with lava
Mix the lava with sand and it will turn into glass
walk on glass, how my heart breaks
But watch your step, because your
feet may ache!
My bed is the moss, Mother Nature is the Boss,
My blanket is the leaves, falling softly on me
Like trees do they the tower,
I find my own power
My path is my own
I am known to wander and roam,
Who knows what path I should take?
My earth,
My love,
My only true home
My mind so free,
I know I shouldn’t worry
I’m safe to just be -
Me,
One with mother nature
Go sit in you skyscraper
maybe that's your home
but my home is my nature
