The author's words are lovely and creative. Home is where the heart
is for many of us! I felt the author conveyed this well. The artwork
is perfect and compliments these words well.

Hi Katiemae. This 5-7-5 poem captures a personal and warm sentiment about home, making it relatable and heartfelt. I love the double rhyme in the first line in this well-crafted verse.
Good luck in the upcoming contest. - Terry

Each and every word in your contest entry I can relate to and agree with. My heart as well is in my home, even now that my kids have been gone.

Memories of them growing and now integrate my grandkids into my home and those words are even more fortified

Best of luck in the contest.
John

Beautiful poem. Where would we be without and comfort, happiness and safety of our own homes.
What better than to go home after a long days work or walk out in the cold or wet and come in home into the cozies and chill in front of the fire or whatever the case may be. Well done, good luck with the contest.
Best Wishes
Nicki

This 5-7-5, An Ode to My Abode, has the proper formatting and reminds the readers that the four walls we surround ourselves with are a kingdom of our choosing.

They say home is where the heart is. I say the lawn is where the heart is. There is nothing worse than a lawn with the mange. Borders! A lawn must be well-bordered and trimmed. Ohh, that's where the heart is, in the green, green grass of home.

Clever little poem that meets the contest rules, being confined to only 5-7-5 is difficult to do and also achieve something that feels well rounded. I think you've achieved it here.

Lovely five-seven-five and a lovely photograph of (your?) abode. A poem about what resides in every homeowners heart, and home is always where the heart is.
