Homing

A home like an only bird,
A home like a mole.
How I need a home
To cover my soul!

Home in a piano box,
Home in a tree,
Home in a railroad car.
What will it be?

A calf has a stall,
A fox has a den.
Where will I find
A home? When?

A home in a ball-room,
A home in a park,
Where will I go
When it gets dark?

A home under leaning boards
Out of the dew.
Where are you going?
I’m coming too!
