The Conundrum of Home
Home is a wonderful place in which
One can prance and pace
Mothers and fathers pour out love
Everyone appreciates the quality symbolized by the dove
I feel that home can be a feeling.
Some people think a home is for healing or just a place with a ceiling
Peace and tranquility are important components of a home
Every day, however, chaos may erupt just like the end of Ancient Rome
Antonyms though chaos and peace seem, one cannot exist without the other
Calmness can make it easier to work things out with one another
Everyone, at least sometimes, enjoys time alone without their siblings, father, and mother
.
Hundreds of people may think of home as a building
One, however, can think of home in this way or that it is a feeling
My opinion is that home is secure
Even if the place is made of manure
Inside a home, one shouldn’t have to worry
Surely, if one does, the house is sorry
Supper, lunch, and breakfast, or at least some food,
Are necessary for an abode to be good
Fears have no place in a home
Everyone should feel very cozy and warm
The house should be safe and keep you alive
Yet this safety shouldn’t feel like a gyve
.
Home should, in some way, meet one’s needs
One another should be in unity in a home, which is the string holding together beads
Many a dwelling is dilapidated and scrappy
Everyone in it, if it’s a home, can still be happy
In a place of this kind,
Several people can have a blissful mind
Everyone should be gifted with a place to stay
Velvet curtains need not be present for one to be gay
Elsewhere and everywhere, there are people without shelter
Right now, under a scalding sun, they may swelter,
Yet Habitat for Humanity has assisted a few
These people, now, can, without constant worry, enjoy the morning dew
Humans need a place that can provide, to its inhabitants, everything
In some countries, people have almost nothing
No one should suffer this much
Globally, many hearts, thanks to this contest, will be touched
