Keeping your home as happy as your gladdened heart
takes some careful tending and tenacious safekeeping
let no ugly chord be struck or spoil the harmony
share from your heart a flow of peace and love's light
with anger or unkind words, vigilantly swept away
as are all the untidy things from corners and floors
Huge or small, beauty of a home resides subtly within
lovingness from the heart permeates the softer atmosphere
grander and more glowing than any expensive decor
a gracious smiling face, will gently displace any flaws
so that all who enter, will feel it as a sweetly loved place
Let the cushions of tranquility, indoors and all throughout
seat your visitors and guests as center of affections
family free to come and go without bother or inconvenience
heart always an open welcome, no matter the trial or woe
no greater compliment for where you daily love and live
than being remembered for its warm, gracious touch
where resides in each and every room, heart as happy as your home
