A blessing on my second home
A Blessing on my second home
By Alex Estep
Peace to you home of comfort
Peace to you support and cheerfulness
Peace to you laughter and joy
A blessing on all beds, warm and inviting,
Helping rest us for the next morning
A blessing on all candles, short and tall
Embracing the entire home in a warm fragrance
A blessing on all phones, cellular and landlines
Keeping us in touch with those we care for
A blessing on the dogs, guards of the home
Keeping the territory clear of uninvited guests
A blessing on the doorbell, on pictures, computers, on strobe lights, on all that seems to keep us entertained
A blessing on this grass: green and lush beneath my feet
Where this house was first built, where this house will remain
Peace be on you home of comfort, peace on this land, where it all began.
