Home is what you make it

My home smells
   like sandalwood and burning candles,
   prayer and meditation,
   study and devotion.

My home feels
   like will with blended love,
   joy mixed with compassion,
   light and dark refashioned.

My home tastes
   like bread baked in the oven,
   cinnamon and spices,
   lentils stewed with rices.

My home
   seems far away.
