A Place To Call Home
I dream of a placeto call my own
A place my baby boy can call home
Just a small house with just enough room
For the toys and books that he will have soon

A house with two bedrooms, a place for a crib
A nice little kitchen, what I wouldn't give
To make it all happen, I wish for it all
For only my son, growing strong and tall

I watch as he sleeps and dream of much more
I think of the tiny clothes he once wore
He's growing and changing so fast, you see
He needs to live with his Daddy and me

I hope really soon we'll all live together
And look out for each other forever and ever
They both are especially dear to my heart
My little boy's life needs a meaningful start

The list is too long of the things I must give
To the life I created and held within
I dream of a place to call our own
A place that my family can call home.

One month after I wrote this poem, we found our house.  Two months later, we moved in!  Moral of the story:  if you want something, write a poem about it!
