Home sweet home.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



Home, sweet home.

Lord, please bless this home. Because it's the only thing I own. I may say and do the wrong things. But it's up to you to teach me. I want to thank you for all my friends for sending them to me in that time of need. Keep evil away from me so I can be free. When the sun comes up. I wake up to a new day that has just begun. So I want to thank you for all you have done. The moon comes up and lights up the night. What an awesome sight! Just make sure you keep me on the right path. Then I won't have to feel your wrath. Then take a walk with me, hand in hand, to the promised land. I thank you indeed. I am a man with a lot of needs.

About this poem

All you people can hang this on the wall. But these days I'll probably only get one vote. That's pretty sad.
