The Meaning of Home

The dictionary says That home is just a place, But I think home is more Than just some random space. Home feels like comfort, Snuggled in a cozy quilt. All curled up with my family, In the love that we all built. Home sounds like laughter, The most enthusiastic sound. My dad telling a witty joke, Me cackling on the ground. Home smells like fresh muffins, The ones that my mom makes. She’ll spend her whole day making them So I don’t have to bake. Home looks like a massive smile, A grin that splits my face. I smile a silly smirk, Knowing this is my safe space. Home tastes like a bowl of chips, Which I tend to refill twice. I gobble them up like a pig, Then my stomach pays the price. I’m grateful that I have a home, And it’s my favourite place to be. Now everyone can have one, Thanks to Habitat for Humanity!
