My Home Tames My Heart! Poem by PARTHA SARATHI PAUL

a home is the hearth
aflame with the warmth
by the lighted faggots
of mutual affection
and bond beyond
to be severed
or burnt to empty fumes!
heart is bohemian
drifts from one shore to other;
the gypsy heart has to learn
how to settle down and nest a home!
the roof under which we put up
may be a sound shelter but...
a gawky geezer may stay
in a dreamy gazebo but...
a home is an earthly paradise
where eager hearts cuddle and muzzle
weave fiction into cozy reality
drown in the ocean of daily joy-sorrow
but survive for another tomorrow!
