It’s quite a collection, this,

of dogs and cats and books and kids,

of doors opened and doors closed,

of dripping faucets and weeds grown tall,

of hummingbirds and cawing crows,

of wasps and bees and peonies

and, of course, there’s always George,

the fish who’s been caught many times –

all these make up the collected works called HOME.
