Home is the best place to be!

As I walk in I feel the love, The warmth, and the presence of the ones above. I cherish them, they cherish me, this is the place I want to be. As I walk in I smell the care, It’s always in the air. I’m home, I’m free, this is the place I want to be. As I walk in I hear the prayers, I reflect and recognize what they say, I hear God’s voice, He brings me in, He says I’m safe. I find the key to my home. This is the place I want to be. The key isn’t physical It's in the mind, But the key is gentle, The key is kind, The key is family. As I walk in I see my family. They’re waiting there with open arms, The fire is going and we are getting warm. This is the warmest place to be, This is the only place I want to be. As I walk in I taste the food my parents make. It’s nutritious and delicious. They make cookies, they make cakes. This is the best place to be… Home Home is a place where I’m safe.
