Home!

Home is where happy memories roam Home is where it is cozy and warm even in the darkest storm It means crafts It means laughs Home is a place where you are safe When your parents rejoice when they've Found something they lost It is when they joke about what you cost You look like a million bucks said dad I love him even when he's mad It is the sound of a closing door followed by a loud motorcycle roar It is the sound of my mom's music And at the table eating bread with garlic The sound of my sister's record player My mom's homemade meatballs with all their flavour going into the public pool After we get picked up from school Washing the dishes with its foam I do love our home Even though it's cluttered As we eat bread that's buttered Playing a funny game that fills us with laughter I keep laughing even long after Home is a place of love Habitat for Humanity Is a blessing to the community
