Home And Love Poem by Robert William Service
Home And Love
Just Home and Love! the words are small
Four little letters unto each;
And yet you will not find in all
The wide and gracious range of speech
Two more so tenderly complete:
When angels talk in Heaven above,
I'm sure they have no words more sweet
Than Home and Love.
Just Home and Love! it's hard to guess
Which of the two were best to gain;
Home without Love is bitterness;
Love without Home is often pain.
No! each alone will seldom do;
Somehow they travel hand and glove:
If you win one you must have two,
Both Home and Love.
And if you've both, well then I'm sure
You ought to sing the whole day long;
It doesn't matter if you're poor
With these to make divine your song.
And so I praisefully repeat,
When angels talk in Heaven above,
There are no words more simply sweet
Than Home and Love.
Very nice that he was able to identify these two words out of all of them. Personally, I agree that these are the two most 'complete' words out there - purely in their feeling and uncompromising, agreeable adoration.
Without love where is life in the world? Love Is The Crowning Piece Of Nature!
I enjoy the subject of the poem and the basic idea behind each of the lines, but I feel like it could've been worded better.
A beautiful poem with a meaningful message. So well expressed and wonderfully crafted.
An insight piece of poetry nicely put together with conviction
