Why home is important
Home is a place where there is love for my cat,
And even my favourite hockey hat.
It’s where I play,
And have fun for the day.
Lots of people care,
Like a big mommy bear.
My family gives me advice to succeed
Even when I bleed or don't want to read
It smells like my dad cooking a steak that is fat
And giving it to my cat
It looks like my sister in her room,
While my cat is staring at the broom.
And my mom and dad working,
While I am playing and smirking.
It feels like a place where I am happy,
Even when I feel slappy.
I hear my parents on a call,
Even when I want to go to the mall.
I touch and pet my cat even when he's not on the couch,
But just in a big pouch
It reminds me of what I love,
Like practicing hockey with my glove.
It's good to know what home means,
Even if you’re in your teens.
