Home is the ultimate noun
Ticking all the boxes
Home is the ultimate noun.
Ticking all the boxes
Of person, place, thing, and idea.
Home is wine with my family,
the arms of my lover,
my closest friends
who may as well be my sisters.
Home is every place
I’ve ever fallen in love with.
Cafes and riversides,
where I grew up and where I am now.
Home is a messy stack of books,
a warm mug of coffee,
the notebook I reach for
when my hand itches to scrawl out a thought.
Home is my ability to adapt,
to transform any space,
to find the beauty
in a tiny apartment across the globe.
It is the feeling of ease,
my mind at peace
with where I am right now.

Frankie's Song of the Week: Espresso - Sabrina Carpenter
A little something different from me while I deal with the strain of writers block. I thought I'd do a song of the week, because I have been surely annoying my neighbours and my friends with this absolute musical GEM. I am of course talking about Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter.

So well written! Love.
"Home is every place/I've ever fallen in love with" - nailed it! A house is not always a home!
