The Love of My Home

When I'm feeling down, my mama hold’s me tight, and then when she does, my world feel’s just right. And then when I'm crying rivers and rivers of tears, my mama says listen with your heart, don't listen with your fears. And when I don't know what's happening, she explains many things, and then her wise words make me think of my beginnings. All my love comes from my home, it keeps me safe when I’m alone. And when all things are wrong and rage, I always feel safe in my home's warm love and embrace. For all the people without a home, for all the people who are alone. A spike of faith any day will make all your worries go away. Habitat for humanity is a place to feel your love. When your life has its turns, when your heart feels the burn. Head over to your nearest habitat for humanity and you will feel right at home.
