The Home is our Treasure

Those with rich wealth of life

Own watches not to tell the time

But to show value of time well spent

Building a roof we work most of our life

A place to shelter our hearts and protect

No house it be

But a home for me

A place to keep love in a safe place

Reminders that decorate walls

A photo be words we never speak

Hang them on a window

Be they fleeting moments or a crescendo

And be a space to focus our resolve

Should the working day be ever so long

Keep safe and warm all my heart

My allegiance to love

Walls ever strong hold us true

Surround us with soil to grow our fields of joy

The strength of all men

Lies within our chest

Beating and feeding our pride

And with love on our side

Do we swear an oath to protect until the end
