A Place Called Home

Home is not just floors, walls and ceilings, home is much more than that. home is also property When When I think deeply about home there’s one thing that really stands out not only does home give you shelter, water, clean cloths It also provides care, love, and memories the meaning of home shouldn't be blunt or bold for that matter home could be Colorful, dull, modern, small, big, sturdy and finally dirty My home doesn't fit into any of these of which are listed Mine would be in a special category that isn't a category Because it would take a long time to explain so let’s put it in the short form.. medium size full of french fries colorful When I think deeply about the elements about my backyard I think of the chiminea slowly burning the fire wood to dark crisp ashes. and especially the old, bright, red chairs near the chiminea And the way the fresh green grass dances with the wind. And when the air sits still, the toads croak, crickets chirp And the leaves are still. I already know night is here. And far away but soon everyone will have a home the sunlight shall shine through their windows too I was hoping to spread awareness that soon everyone Should have a home soon And that I feel so lucky to have one
