The Difference Between a Home and a House

A home is a place where you're truly cared, Not a place where you're taunted and scared. A home is a place where you and your family Can share stories about the wonders of humanity. But a house is a place with lots of stuff. The big and the small, the smooth and the rough. The stuff inside, you don't really need, But just a family, that won't misread. Some people don't have a home, a place where they are loved, Instead live in a place, beaten, pushed, and shoved. So if they're in a place where they are disrespected, Don't stand by and let them feel rejected. Bring them to a place where they can call home, Where they can be loved and can freely roam. A house can be divine, small, big, or strong, But not having a home is rightfully wrong. All of the houses you see on the road, Don't feel as comfortable as your own. Dark and gloomy. Bright and bloomy. Old and crumbling. Big and rumbling. A small house that's red. A scary one that fills you with dread. All of the houses along this big street, Could never have that comforting feat of home!
