Do You Know?

Do you know?
Can you tell?
Do you understand that beyond--
way beyond
the fact that WdC is a business,
a writing site,
a doorway
to a world of other writers
that this is a home?

Do you know
that clicking on the bookmark
is like walking into Mom's kitchen
on Thanksgiving
every day of the year?

Do you know
that the warmth one gets from
reviews and friends we've made
is like curling up on the comfy chair
by the fireplace in the living room?

Do you know
that the safe haven
you've made for our words and thoughts
wraps around us like a fuzzy-warm blanket
on a bed of dreams?

Do you know the plethora
of things to read and reflect on
here has given each of us
a library where we can meander at will?

Do you know
you are as welcome
as any family member
coming home and that
there will always be
a light on for you?

Do you know this?
Truly, deep down,
know this?
For it is so.
