Home is Best

Here is another poem i came across to day. I guess it's the day for poems!!

Home is Best

Stay, Stay at home, my heart and rest;

Home-keeping hearts are happiest,

For those that wander they know not where

Are full of trouble and full of care;

To stay at home is best.

Weary and homesick and distresses,

They wander east, they wander west,

And are baffled and beaten and blow about

By the winds of the wilderness of doubt;

To stay at home is best.

Then stay at home, my heat, and rest;

The bird is safest in it's nest,

Over all that flutter their wings and fly

A hawk is hovering in the sky;

To stay at home is best.

By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
