Home Isn't Just a House, It's a Feeling

H - ouse is just an empty wooden shell O - ppressed of life, only bricks and washed-out gray stairwells. Waiting for the grainy dust to settle on the empty picture frame that could have been. U- nder the tree branch, an abandoned swing set, waiting to be seen. The ropes attached slowly fraying. S- till, there could be a chance for life, for playing. waiting, and praying. E- ternally quiet… H- ome isn't just a house it's a feeling You can find it outside or with people in the mountains or by the beach where happiness should always be in reach. O- ur happiest moments can be found outside of our houses sometimes it doesn't need to be in a neat bungalow but your home still could be in a structure. M- aybe it could be a tall apartment a home with a shaggy pink carpet a shack with one wall or a modern house next to the mall. E- nter a welcoming warmth and ease In a home I hope you will feel at peace.
