Home so sweet

Lorenz

It's a comfortable home

warm in winter frosts 

cool in the summer heats.

There's always this quiet cat

who wonders about the world

behind the curtain of passing time.

It's a pleasant  home where fragrant waves

of subtle spirits circulate ,respectfully saluting

a smiling Buddha on the chest of drawers.

  No flowers trapped in a vase's fate !

  I don't like sacrificial queens ...

  A cactus that longs for Sonora desert ,

a bonsai in samurai armor  enthralled 

by a Marie-Laure Laurencin marine watercolor !

I enjoy a glass of gin by the fireside 

this respectable chessboard  quite  dusty ...

The age of gaming is over ! 

 A morning aroma of arabica like some 

 far east  caravan  following the star ...

 Long -wise room where the echo of a mantra

chanted by Deva Premal resounds 

and full of adventure books 

 lazing around the jungle bed...

 Incense stick burns out ,

discussing the after life with an old retired teddy .

It's a blue house perched on the San-francisco clouds,

on the shores of  a secret treasure  island ...

  Place of  inspired  religion where fears are tamed.

    My temple and inner abode .

        We all have or would like to have such a place a place of safety, peace, security, and fulfillment. Nicely done.

          The most important thing is that it corresponds to our inner home !
