My Home

my home the smell of Mom’s homemade chicken pot pie gathering around the table glasses clanging drinks spilling bumping elbows TV way too loud, turn it dawn! Santa visits Presents hiding in all the closets dog knocking the tree over happy birthday to you! watching dad carve the turkey The sound of dog barking!! pizza is ordered popcorn in the microwave games picked movie chosen snuggling in grandma’s old blanket Siblings fighting! watching siblings hockey game skates on the four tripping over hockey gear kayaks in the garage bikes on the driveway Beds unmade, laundry on the flour! Mom making soup Dad tucking me in sister getting the tylenol brother getting orange juice snuggles my family my home my place
