Acres to Thank
I am thankful I have a place to go,
A place of my own.
Where the stars shine bright in the dark,
My mother explaining all to me.

My brother standing stern against me.
All these things I learn from this place.
It’s shouting at me, quietly, all this knowledge,
As long as I listen.
So I am thankful I have my own sacred
