Favorite Poems
Posted in Cottage Gazette
To Stay At Home Is Best
Stay, stay at home, my heart, and rest;
Home-keeping hearts are happiest,
For those that wander they know not where
Are full of trouble and full of care;
To stay at home is best.
Weary and homesick and distressed,
They wander east, they wander west,
And are baffled and beaten and blown about
By the winds of the wilderness of doubt;
To stay at home is best.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Was random blogging and saw this. What a beautiful site. Wish I had done something like that. Also, your poem by Longfellow has ALWAYS been one of my favorites. Stop by my blog. It's not as pretty as yours, but I love to write.
