Excerpt from To My Home
Hearth blossom the sweetest flowers of memory, with pictures of all that made childhood fair gathered about it. Days of innocence and peace, as long as they were happy, sweet evenings of mirth and play, brief dreamless nights that were too short, as all the days were short for all we found to do, were passed beneath its roof. Here once we knew a mother's, love, a father's sheltering care, the fond affection of broth ers, sisters, friends, and kinsfolk dear. Never was spot more blest. And now, in riper years, once again we rear the temple, Home, and here we strive once more to build anew a shrine for those we love as, long ago, loving hands took from Heaven a holy fire to light our Childhood's hearth. May every good of elder days be lovely in its rooms! And may we make for these, our little ones, the dreams of those, our parents, all come.

Excerpt from To My Home
MID pleasures and palaces though we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home! A charm from the skies seems to hallow us there, Which, seek through the world, is ne'er met with elsewhere. 'home! Home! Sweet, sweet home! There's no place like home!
