Give Me A Home

Give me a home to call my own
A humble home of wood or stone;
A place where ripples laugh all day
And songbirds sing and children play
A little home of love and cheer
Where seasons paint throughout the year,
And at last, when the day is through,
A place where I may talk with you.

Give me a home to call my own,
A friendly home to stand alone
And crown some earthly mound of clay
Or set before an ocean spray,
A simple home of faith and trust
Where I may toil in Heaven's dust
And when, anew, each day is through,
A place where I may be with you.

Give me a home to call my own,
A common home of tree or stone;
A place where kindness lights the way,
And flowers bloom and willows sway-
A home of love where hearts may kiss
Each tender joy of wedded bliss,
And in each hour of life to find,
A truer peace of heart and mind.

Well, while this election was a milestone for me, personally, the turn-out is going to be a record for sure. I do believe we will get a turn-out almost as good as the Iraqis did. I wouldn’t have believed the lines would have been as long as they were this morning when the polls opened. We went an hour early and there was already a fairly long line but it was nothing compared the line as we were leaving. It went out of the building and wrapped around the parking lot. Don’t know which party has an advantage, if either one does, from a larger than normal turn-out. McCain is supposed to be above 60% and Obama is supposed to be below 40%. Let’s hope the extra people are not all Barry-O voters.
