A home is more than a home

A home is a place where you can rest. My home is a house and a bird's home is a nest. A fish lives in the deep blue sea, and a squirrel lives in a beautiful autumn tree. A home can be built of sticks or it can be made out of bricks. Each home has different decor. My house has everything from a kitchen, to a bathroom, to a floor. In university your house is a dorm. A home is what protects you from vile storms. A horse sleeps in a shed and I dream in a bed. My neighbour is my friend and a pigs neighbour is a hen. Your home is like a person in a way, you have to clean, organize it and wipe the dust away. A home is a place you feel sad and mad. It’s a place where you’ve also been bad, but there were great moments in your home, like the pictures on the wall that show how much you’ve grown. Your home has memories of your family kissing, caring, and hugging you. What does your family have? One mom or two? My home has my mom, my cat, and I. In this home we all live happy lives. You must respect each other's homes. It takes time for a beaver to build a den, It's hard for a hen to get comfy in it’s shed. A home can be big or it can be small. No matter the shape or size, It’s not about the appearance, it’s about what’s inside. So love your place because it’s your own, there truly is no place like home. No matter if you live in mansion or on the street, respect peoples homes because at the end of the day that’s where they sleep. I hope after this you learn to love your home because the place you live in is really your sacred dome. Love your home.
