Home Is All I Know

In every whisper of the breeze, a tale is told, Of hearth and heart, where memories unfold. Where laughter dances in the halls with glee, And every corner holds a piece of me. Home, the sanctuary where dreams take flight, A haven bathed in love's eternal light, Within its walls, I find my truest self, A treasure trove of joy, not bound by wealth. Roof tiles embrace the sky with gentle grace, As walls stand firm, a steadfast embrace. In every creaking floorboard's tender sigh, I hear the echoes of a lullaby. Through windows, sunlight weaves its golden strands, Painting portraits on the walls with tender hands. And in the night, the stars above do gleam, Guiding weary souls to rest, to dream. Home is being cozy on the couch, with people you care about I sit down to pray, when I feel astray Home is a place where you go when you feel sick or bad, And sit down with our moms and dads. Oh, home! A symphony of warmth and peace, Where troubles cease and worries find release. With family gathered 'round the glowing flame, Each moment cherished, each memory the same. We talk about things we like, and how to ride a bike. Either on a field or court, I am never bored. Though storms may rage and winds may fiercely blow, Home remains the anchor, steady and slow, Home is where my family grows, Home is all I know.
