Where the Best Memories Are

A house is a structure made of bricks and walls. But a home is a place, where my best memories are As I stepped into my bedroom, I went back in time. I saw me and my dad decorating my room. My walls were painted red and blue To match my favorite robot Optimus Prime. As I stepped into the bathroom, I went back in time. I saw myself splashing around in the bubble bath With my shower buddy duck called Pip (no rhyming here?) As I stepped into the kitchen, I went back in time. Every time I smell the smell of my mom cooking I rush down the stairs no matter what I was doing My favorite mom dish is her famous spaghetti and meatballs Whenever I eat it, I felt like I’m the happiest person alive. As I stepped into the living room, I went back in time Everyday after supper, we would play Monopoly, Scrabble and sometimes watch a movie We’ve even set up a giant canvas for me to doodle around with my colorful hands As I stepped into our garden I went back in time When it’s summer, we would take out our water guns and squirt around our backyard When it’s winter, we would roll up balls of snow and together, creating a giant snowman. Our home is always the warmest and safest place in the universe no matter what…
