The Home

in
A Two-story town house
A Lawn in front, two cars and two dogs
The aspired home?

Happy college, ample party
Simple work, cool salary
Uncomplex life, brimming affluence?

A peaceful retirement
Friends and Friendlessness
A vapid life, lived to the hilt?

O vain soul, remember in Thy youth
Thou art a King’s Son
Caring for Thy Father’s Kingdom

Look Thou beyond Thy mud-pie aspirations
Unto the storied Home above
Of the King Thou owest Thy allegiance to.
