This is where I'll forever belong
so each day I will treasure
with the sound of the morning song

I see the path is winding and long
farther than can be measured
This is where I'll forever belong

The sun is slowly moving on
the birds still show their pleasure
with the sound of the morning song

The flower scent is sweet and strong
I smell them at my leisure
This is where I'll forever belong

Nothing here is ever wrong
you'll find not one displeasure
with the sound of the morning song

You'll find me walking slowly along
taking in all that I treasure
This is where I'll forever belong
with the sound of the morning song


Okay I think that one is better...
YOUR TURN
ENJOY !!

Today's Prompt is Villanelle

Villanelle 

A villanelle has only two rhyme sounds. The first and third lines of the first stanza are rhyming refrains that alternate as the third line in each successive stanza and form a couplet at the close. A villanelle is nineteen lines long, consisting of five tercets and one concluding quatrain.

Even when you're shattered   
You always have a home      
This is where you matter

You are free to roam
in this world of clatter
you are not alone

when pieces of life tatter
and love chill's you to the bone
your thoughts may scatter

yet you can still come home
this is where you matter
let my love be shown

your tears no longer splatter
here where you are known
your love is all I'm after

when all your seeds are sown
I long to hear your laughter
you always have a home
even when you're shattered


I have a long way to go with this form, Reading further I did this wrong and will do another to try to get it correct. This is how it should be...
