Meaning Of Home To Me

Every house is different and unique, The size does not matter nor the shape or the peak. It may look different on the outside but it's not about that, It's about the people who are in it who find the big spark. From small to tall I grow, and I grow and the house that I live in Comes to a slow, When it's time to leave I pack up my bags, Ready for the new house that waits for us to arrive. Now that I'm ten I have found the big spark, It’s the people it’s the people that matter the most, I appreciate all they do so let's give them a toast. I love Mummy and my Daddy and my sister much too And the fish who was with us which we all loved too. If the people we love fly like a dove to up above I remember all the things they make me proud of. Our house becomes stronger when we get into fights, But forgive each other and make everything right. When the sun takes a break, and the clouds show their pride, I thankfully have a place, so I don’t have to hide. When the sun goes to sleep, the moon rises and I start to count sheep I have somewhere to get my nice beauty sleep! I just close my eyes and I don’t say a peep Because I have already drifted off to sleep. So, let's come together to build houses for others, After all we are sisters and brothers!
