My Home Feels Like Home

My home contains comfortableness My home contains fun My home contains memories that I have had since I was one My home contains silentness My home contains what I need My home contains a bed that I sit in when I read A home is not a house That has furniture or tech A home is a free place when I stand on the deck When I am having a rough day I walk to my front door And open the windows wide To breathe clearly more A home is where I feel freshness in my lungs A home is where I grab food and taste it on my tongue A home is where I have a backyard To play in the sun all day A home is where I feel safe While my siblings play A home contains feelings Feelings that come anytime A home contains families Just like mine A home has moments Maybe a time of despair but a home can have happy moments Where there is wellness and care I am incredibly lucky to have a home You probably are too and at a time like this There is something you can do We can help people in need Yes, together we can Let us all raise awareness To lend someone a hand
