There is no place like home

Home is where our story begins, the place where we are born and where we grow up, under the protective supervision of our parents and the supportive nature of our siblings, it is the place where love resides, memories are created, families are bonded, it is not a place but a feeling, emotion, something which is close to your heart, something where you would like to end your day after a busy, hectic stressful day, it is not only a structure made of brick, stones, sand and beams but something which is standing strongly on hope, dreams, hard-work and efforts; and not to forget love and care are the most important thing in a home . Everyone deserves a home where they can feel safe and make risks . Where they can be loved. Where they can talk in peace and where they can sleep in peace . Today I sit here and write a poem to donate for the homeless (who don’t have a home). We all agree no one should be without a home .
