Feels Like Home To Me

Feels Like Home To Me

A Poem by Sarah

Sheets and towels dryin’ on the line

Dandelions wav'n tall in the grass

Cattle and fields paint the horizon

The smell of country sweetens the air

 

Walkin’ around in our bare feet

Skippin’ rocks across the creek

Spendin’ Saturday morning fishin’ on the dock,

Not catchin’ a thing, Not watchin’ a clock

Reading a book on the front porch swing

Time with you feels like home to me

 

Dusty old photos hangin’ on the walls

Grandfather clock still says noon

Porcelain and silver set the table

Homemade tea in my cup

 

Walkin’ around in our bare feet

Skippin’ rocks across the creek

Spendin’ Saturday morning fishin’ on the dock,

Not catchin’ a thing, Not watchin’ a clock

Reading a book on the front porch swing

Time with you feels like home to me

 

Ewing Nunn invented the vinyl

That’s when music went wild

Poetry turned into songs

How about singin’ along

 

Walkin’ around in our bare feet

Skippin’ rocks across the creek

Spendin’ Saturday morning fishin’ on the dock,

Not catchin’ a thing, Not watchin’ a clock

Reading a book on the front porch swing

Time with you feels like home to me

Sounds like how I grew up. Great work!

You are an amazing lyricist (and I'll wager an equally amazing musician). I wonder, if I may, why you say "my" in the last chorus and not "our" again. This is a happy song, no? Absolutely marvellous, this song! Well done!

This had quite the glorious beat to it, with syllables and breath done musically... Whimsical images abound, and I want to go take a walk in a mountainous meadow after reading this one... Very well penned...
