Homegrown

No mansion on the lake A cottage on the lane A hub for dwelling sake Worn wood on windowpane Potatoes in the bin A mattress for my bed A table in the den Suffice for breaking bread A garden wrought with weeds That flourishes in the Fall But still supplies my needs When neighbors come to call Though rustic it may be Whenever I may roam I ever long to see This place that I call home
