Home Poem

What does home mean to me? I used to think it is where I sleep and eat Now I know it is not where I sleep and eat It is where I feel loved, cared for and safe I am so lucky to have two homes Not only do I have a home here in Toronto I also have one in India Where I was born It is very hard to change where you live It feels very sad to leave A home you have lived in for so many years Why do you have to change where you live? The nice neighbourhood, all my friends I also consider them a part of what home means It is just so fun with them So familiar with them If it is this hard to leave I can’t even imagine what it would be like to not have it What would it be like to not have a home I ask myself this every day Home is also my family My mom, dad, and my brother We always entertain each other We keep each other happy No matter what happens How many times I move where I live Home will always mean the same thing to me My family I am very grateful for my family Not only do they take care of me They take me to all my classes Even though it is not easy for them I think Habitat for Humanity is a great organization They are doing a great thing Helping people who don’t have a home is a very nice thing to do Thank you Habitat for Humanity
