Home is a Place to Protect

Home is a Place to Protect By: Finn Smith-Giesbrecht Home is a place to discover A place to stash and collect A place to come back to And a place to protect Think less of a house and more of a home My heart carries my memories wherever I roam My home smells of mom’s baking And tastes just as good Why not go share some with the neighborhood! As soon as I come home I hear our dogs claws Scampering on the smooth floor tongue hanging from her jaw Home can sometimes be frustrating But our bond is strong enough To weather those challenges Though they may be tough Old fashion treasures clutter my shelfs As I read fantasy books about lions and elves Home is special, home is good Though it is not always sweet roses and love My home fits me perfectly… Just like a glove.
