Home is 
The acre of raw 

Here grass was built 
Like my bones 
My body
My soul 

Home is a collection of all my memories
Ladled into an acre of land 
And the many strides it took 
As a child 
To cross the street
Into the wood 
Across the field 
Next to the Queen Anne's lace 
Where I named the bark of specific trees
That I looked on as fond friends 

I can still find a few of them 

I had crooked teeth then
And bangs like swings 
Rusty at the hinges 
And a voice as high and untamed 
As a mule 

I was an acre then
Raw
