Home Is

Home is like a dove, white and bright It spreads its wings as it sings its sweet song of love At home I am treated with care, I return the favour by being fair Home is love Home isn't where you are, it's who you're with Family is like a gift Sisters and brothers, Fathers and mothers Home is family Home is a place to sleep It’s a place to make memories to keep Bed is a place in your home to dream, It's when you're quiet and serene Home is sleep Home is a place to read, Where your thoughts sprout like a seed Your mind turns off from reality Your mind turns to a gallery, It scrolls through the beautiful pictures your mind creates Home is reading Home isn’t a limited place of four walls It’s when your imagination calls Your heart feels full of creations and consideration You think deeply past where home has its door, A place where you can always soar Home is imagination Home is where you grow and learn to be a better you Love takes a lot of time and that's true Your heart is growing and always in bloom Home is more than just a room Home is time Home is where you love each other, Everyone has their own spark of colour We share stories of our own, Let our personalities be known Here we can always be ourselves, We are like books upon the shelves Our individuality makes us amazing Our hearts always gazing Home is unique Thank you Habitat for Humanity for building homes for people in need and doing an amazing deed Home is all of these
