samyak jain - home

a home is
where heart is,
where love is,
where mother
waits at the door
till the last child returns,
where she gets the fill
when others are fed.

a home
is not just,
pillars, walls, staircase,
furniture, chandeliers,
a home
may be a hut,
a flat, a bungalow
or a chateau,

love,
in full abundance
trust
in each other
and
tolerance
for every body else
makes
a house, hut or a palace
a home.
