Home,

The past behind,

Ahead we grow,

Soul, body, mind.

Home held high

By cragged peaks,

Built by the bereft

Clemency, manifest

At twilight’s gloam

We’re called

Beneath the clouds

We call

We seek as

Auburn falls

An owl’s call

Greets cold night air

A lone wind howls

The valley’s song

The starlit sky

In mute reprise

The final verse

Erased by dawn

A river runs

Through trees stood tall

With leaves of red

That never fall

Amidst the frost

A flower blooms

Each day it thaws

With life renewed

This home we found

When all was lost

Our hardened hearts

Begin to thaw

This home they built

Despite the cost

A place to call

Our home amidst the frost
