Home: The Foundation of My Heart

As I walk up the steps to my front door, I know that I will be welcomed, loved and so much more. This is a place where I live safe and free, And I know that there is unconditional love even when we disagree. When I get inside I feel so much pride, It's a place where I never feel I have to hide. The laughter of my family brings me so much joy, It's a relationship I hope nothing will ever destroy. In my home the curtains freely flutter and sway, There's always a gentle breeze throughout the day, When I look at all the pictures on display, I am thankful for all the memories we create each day. Home is where my heart finds peace, A place that puts my soul at ease, It's where I feel my parents’ warm embrace, And know there is compassion and comfort in each space. My wish is for everyone to have a home where they can grow, Where love and kindness always flow, Where every member is cherished and kept near, And everyone’s opinion in heard and each person is held dear.
