The Spirit of Home

A house The smell of paint fills the place The sound of silence echoes through the space The walls are plain with no colour The bedrooms are empty with nothing to discover The atmosphere is lifeless A home The smell of fresh food cooking The sound of children laughing The walls covered with drawings The bedrooms packed with toys and belongings The atmosphere is full of life For a house is just structure and beams, and a home is full of life and dreams
