Home is Not Just a Place

Home is not just a place to me, home is many things. When you are dirty you have a nice warm towel and a shower to go to just for you. Home is family, a place where I feel safe where I can go to sleep in a cozy bed where I have fun with my family where I can play games all day and all night. A place where I can walk in and there is a nice warm hot meal waiting for me and my family saying I love you all the time and all day, too. When my mom is waking me up with a warm hot breakfast and my dad wakes me up with a dirty sock and you just can’t get enough. When you feel like home to me the warm and gentle comfort of the familiar things. Home to me is a safe and peaceful place where I can relax and be free. You feel like home to me with your knowing smile and you can put me at ease. You feel like home to me and here with you is the only place I will ever be.
