The Meaning of Home to Me

My house is by the sea What does it mean to me It’s a good place to sleep Where I can count sheep In my comfy bunk bed Where I sleep like I am dead My friends’ house is not too far I can get there without a car There are lots of fun things I can do Lots of things to learn that are new There is a trampoline in my yard When I miss I land quite hard The floor indoors makes one great space For building with LEGO all over the place My house is a comfortable space to read With a lot more books than I will ever need The food I eat is very tasty and good And puts me in a cheerful mood When I am in my house I feel happy With everything I have including my puppy She's a curly haired pooch and she’s excitable and fun She’s cuddly and cute and fast on the run But my house is not just about the things that I own Not books not toys not even a dog that won’t leave me alone But my mom and dad are there all the time When I feel bad they make me just fine Even if sometimes they are mad I know at the end I don’t make them sad No matter what I do or say They will still love me anyway With their protection I will never be hurt Even by a person as evil as Lord Voldemort A house can be any size big or small But it’s only a home if there’s love most of all
