Sitting at the Counter

Sitting at the Counter I see laughter, belonging, delicious food being eaten, sitting at the counter I feel loved, cared, liked, meant to be. I smell chicken & rice, fresh cookies, banana bread, muffins. I taste delicious fruits, juicy meat patties, runny pasta. I hear chatting, laughing discussions, food being chewed. A home is an Important part of my family because not every family is as fortunate.
