The Meaning Of Home

A home is more than windows and doors, Kitchens and bedrooms, Bathrooms and floors. A home is a place where you are bathed and fed A home is a place where you rest your head Dreaming about what the next day will bring Waking up by your clock with a ring! A home is a place where you spend Holidays with sisters, brothers and pets, Family and friends. A home is a place where feelings are shared Sadness and happiness, anger and fear. But some people don’t know the meaning of home Simply living in a cold dark dome. Dreams and happiness melting away Love and hope draining each day. But if we work together heart to heart We can slowly but surely take this apart. One simple writing piece will donate a bit To make affordable homes for someone to live. So who will you be? Will you sit and wait for something to change or Will you be like me? That minor change can change someone's life. From the kid who cares adios sayonara au revoir goodbye. I hope you will decide to never let hope die.
