HOME

If my sofa had a mood

would it laugh or would it brood?

If my lamp could sing a song,

would the table hum along?

Dancing chairs along the floor

as the windows clap for more.

Would the carpet walk away

could the bookcase make it stay?

Would the lights up on the ceiling

tell us all just how they’re feeling?

What if depression grabbed the door

and he won’t open anymore?

Would they all like a vacation?

A new position – a new station?

These things we’ll never know

unless the house chooses to show.

And though my mind may roam

there’s no place quite like home.

Hey, we all need a little nonsense from time to time!
