My meaning of home

Home doesn't have to have family And it doesn't have to be fancy Even if it is not what you expected Home is a place where you are protected. When I enter my home My parents say hello I tell them about my day And then I think and say What about the others Who don’t have covers When they go to rest I want to give it my best To fix this mess. But sometimes we forget About those that are wet or cold or hot, stuck with no home Like a bird with no nest It has no place for rest. We think it’s so simple When we turn the key It’s not that at all It’s not even their fault So let’s take action And point each other In the right direction.
