HO ME
By EDWARD A. GUEST
in The Carpenter

1t takes heap o. livin' in a house to
make it home,
A heap o. sun and shadder, and you
sometimes have to roam
Before you really 'preciate the things
you've left behind,
And hunger for 'em somehow, with
'em always in your mind.
1t don't make any difference how rich
you get to be,
How much your chairs and tables cost,
how great your luxury;
1t isn't home tho it may be the palace
of a king,
Until somehow your soul is sort o.
wrapped round everything.
Homes not place that gold can buy or
get up in a minute
Before its home there's got to be a
heap o. livin' in it;
Within the walls there's got to be some
babies born, an then
Right there you've got to bring 'em up
to women good-and men.
And gradually, as time goes on, you
find you wouldn't part
With anything they ever used-they've
grown into your heart;
The old high chairs. the playthings, too,
the little shoes they wore,
You hoard; an if you could, you'd
keep the thumb-marks on the door.
You've got to weep to make it home,
you've got to sit and sigh,
AM watch beside loved ones bed an
know that Death is nigh;
And in the stiffness O. the night to see
Deaths angel come,
And close the eyes O. her that smiled
an leave her sweet voice dumb.
For these are scenes that grip the heart,
and when your tears are dried
You fird the home is dearer than it
was--an' sanctified;
An tuggin' always at you are the pleas
ant memories
OF her that was. and is no more-you
can't escape from these.
You've got to sing and dance for years,
you've got to romp and play,
An learn to love the things you have,
by usin' 'em each day;
And so the roses round the porch must
blossom year by year
Before they are a part o you, sug-
gestin' someone dear
That used to love 'cm long ago, and
trained 'em Just to run
The way they do, so they would get
the early mornin' sun.
You've got to love each stone and brick
from cellar up to dome
1t takes q heap o livin' in a house to
make it home.
