It All Starts with a Home

It all starts with a Home Walls Roof Family Warmth Kindness Love A place to sleep, eat, learn, laugh, dream and share secrets. A place to feel alone, cry, have fear, slam doors and feel emotions rise up like a balloon slowly growing. The beginning and end to my day The start and finish to my problems The road I take to escape Far Far Away to a place where I am safe. White painted walls Thin and narrow halls Is not all a house is. My house is full of Wonder and exploration. Morning comes and sunlight shines through the windows waking me up. A home is a place everyone deserves Its more than a place It's a path that leads you far far away to a place where you can lay your head from day to day and let the rays of the sun keep you safe.
