Home Full of Love!

My room is my Sanctuary, my home is my haven. My neighborhood is my kingdom where my heart and my soul roam free. My backyard is my playground. My bed is my ship where I sail across the waves of dreams. An empty room in a house is no fun, no care, no space to have fun, not anywhere. But a home is a place full of love and care. The backyard is a playground and the garden full of green. Nourishing sunlight and water help it grow, and then it nourishes us back. A living room is a place full of family and love and a place for game nights and celebrations galore. My bed is a place where I snuggle at night, a place where I read and dreams take flight. Home is a place, a house is too, but they are not the same. A home is a place where love is shared, a house is just a shelter. A home may not be a house, it could be a library, a school or even your very own room. Your home may not be a house, it could just be somewhere where you feel comfortable, where you can share love and you feel like you can be yourself. If a home burns or floods, sadness chokes the air. But if a house burns there is no care. A house is just a shelter where you hide from the rain, cold and wind, but a home is where you are sheltered and surrounded by love. Love can be complicated but a home is simple, it is a place where you share love and happiness grows. Home is like a song, soft and beautiful, calm and caring. I love my home!
