Home is not a House
Home is not a house.
Nor an apartment,
Nor a school,
Nor a playground.
Home is not a building.
It’s not made of bricks.
It’s not made of wood.
It’s not made of stone.
Home is not even a place.
You can’t exactly drive there in a car.
Or get there with an airplane.
Not even sail there in a boat.
Home is not an object.
It’s not like a shoe.
Or a banana.
Home is something different.
But what is it?
Home is not a house.
Home is not a building.
Home is not even a place.
Home is not an object.
Home is a feeling.
A warm, happy feeling.
A feeling that makes you feel like you belong.
A feeling created by those around you.
Those who make you feel at home.
Home is not a house.
