Home Is Not A Building...







Home is not a building of wood or stone.

We often  question our own existence. 
Spending a lifetime looking for what we already have, 
filling our pockets with possessions, 
like a hamster stuffing its cheeks.

Our wealth doesn't come to us in things that we inevitably leave behind, 
a house filled with minutia.

I know that I am as rich as any man has ever been. 

My reason for being sits now to my left,
 on a sun-drenched wall, in an unfamiliar town, 
watching the passing crowd.

There, or anywhere, with my family, I am home.
