A True Home

My house is my home It is true and free It feels safe and calm It makes me feel happy Home is unique It isn’t just a house; you may see a plain building But it’s where important memories are held Where love is deeply treasured It’s where I hear the slight clicks of my dad working on the computer And smell the aroma of my mom's delicious pasta, And see the true memories and meanings that go far past the walls And enjoy feeling the warmth and love in both of my sister’s hugs It’s a true home To you, my home is nothing, simply a plain house To me, my home is everything It is a home to me, and a house to you It's because a house is a building And my home is more It has an actual meaning, a worth A place you care about You may have your own home But you also may not, Thanks to Habitat for Humanity, Those who may not, end up getting a house And from there they can turn it into a home A very true and only home But only you can make it a home And that home will be everything
