Home Haiku

The place where one lives
and feels like they have arrived?
Harmonious home.

We all wish we were
bound for love waiting at home,
not just Paul Simon.

We may call it home
But inside we know the truth
Home is not this place

A lock and a bed
Running water, heat, food - YET
Writing this is home

When we try too hard
it means we are not at home
and we must go home

Insecurity
Is a painful exile
Where you pine for home

A select many
Each of us makes history
Our lives are our homes

When we trip too hard it means we're not home. Thanks for this one. Good reminder.
