What Home Means
A home is where your heart lives
A home is a where your soul lives
Where nights are spent
Tears are cried
Unforgettable memories are made
Meals are shared
Loved ones gather
Hopes and dreams live
Joy spreads
Songs are sung
Everyone lives
Full of life
I grow up
Eat meals
Play
Read
Write
I draw and draw
Make messes
And clean them up
Where you grow up
Broke the vase
Hit your head
Fought with siblings
Went to bed
Went to school
My life wouldn’t be the same without
The place we call home
We share love
We share joy
We share hope
We share dreams
We all need a home
A safe place to stay
A place were we all feel wanted
But some people
Are alone
Cold and fearful
No one should have to feel
We need to use our gifts
To help and to heal
As I look around now
I feel blessed
I have a home
I have my friends
I want to help
I want to end
The horrible truth
That is homelessness
Everyone can help
You can help
Believe me you can
It doesn’t take much
Just paper and pen
If we all pitch in
We might just help
Give all a home
A home with love
A home isn’t a house
It’s where you feel safe
Loved
Wanted
Everything
Home doesn’t mean house
It means heart
And as I look around now
I know where I am
I have grown
I know where I am
I am home.
