The Meaning of Home
A house made with some bricks and concrete.
A home is a great place,
where you’re always upbeat.
Home is a place where you laugh and you cry,
Where you smell the sweet scent of your mom’s homemade apple pie.
A place where you challenge yourself,
Maybe read something new that you found on the bookshelf.
Home is where you learn something new almost every day,
where you have someone to tell if you had a bad day.
Home is a safe place, where you can be you,
where you’ll have a friend if you’re feeling blue.
Home is where you’ll never be ashamed of what you like,
It’s where you learn to ride a bike.
At the end of the day, home is where you choose,
Not where you have to be.
Thank you so much, Habitat for Humanity, for giving families this wonderful opportunity to have a home.
