Poetry and Sayings

Home

• For a new home:
  May you always have -
  Walls for the winds,
  A roof for the rain,
  Tea beside the fire,
  Laughter to cheery you,
  Those you love near you,
  And all that your heart may desire.



• A blessing upon your new home,
  A blessing upon your new hearth,
  A blessing upon your new dwelling,
  Upon your newly-kindled fire.



• Bless the four corners of this house,
  And be the lintel blest;
  And bless the hearth and bless the board
  And bless each place of rest;
  And bless the door that opens wide
  To stranger as to kin;
  And bless each crystal windowpane
  That lets the starlight in;
  And bless the rooftop overhead
  And every sturdy wall.
  The peace of man, the peace of God
  The peace of love on all.
            Arthur Guiterman



• Give me a house
  To call my own,
  Family and friends
  To call it a home.



• Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam,
  Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.
