The Meaning of Home

Home to me is not a structure of any kind, It's the place where we have peace of mind. It's not just floors and doors, To me it's so much more. It’s where safety is key for you and me, Where we can all be ourselves ever so naturally. My fondest memories are made at home, It's a place where I never feel alone. The sounds of laughter from the mouths of my family, Always makes me appreciate the love that surrounds me. That same feeling of comfort like a warm fuzzy blanket, Brings a sense of security like a well kept secret. Home is where we never feel afraid, It's where artwork is made and music is played. A home is the smell of warm fresh cookies right out of the oven, The feeling I’m always lovin’, like hugging my favourite cousin. Home is where we celebrate all our family holidays, Eating the most delicious food cooked in many different ways. It's amazing to see that other families will get a place to call home, So thank you Habitat For Humanity for giving others their own.
