The Meaning of Home

My home is more than the stuff inside It’s a place where I can feel sadness and pride A house is made with bricks and beams But homes are made with love and dreams My home is a feeling of joy It’s not about the books and toys When I work hard and reach incredible heights I always look back and see my family in sight My family is always my home It doesn’t matter how far I roam My home is like a warm embrace It is quite an extraordinary place Homes can be big or small But that’s not what matters at all What matters most is the people there The memories, joy and laughter we share A home is not just four walls and a roof My family’s bond is the living proof My home is not a physical thing It’s the emotions, the love, the powerful things
