A prayer for a little home by Florence Bone God send us a little home, to come back to, when we roam. Low walls and fluted tiles, wide windows, a view for miles. Red firelight and deep chairs, small white beds upstairs- Great talk in little nooks, dim colors, rows of books. One picture on each wall, not many things at all. God send us a little ground, tall trees stand round. Lovely flowers in brown sod, Overhead, thy stars, O God. God bless thee, when winds blow, Our home, and all we know. God Bless you Rosemary. Thank you always for your kind words and sharing your home with us. David, Erin & Jackson
