The Meaning of Home

Home is a place where memories are shared, home is a place where love is in the air. Home is affection and relaxation where I feel safe. Home is culture and heritage, including traditions. You look at your home, brothers, sisters and little cousins running all around, you see height charts on the wall. You think about how much you love them all. All these memories and it’s just four walls. My dog Schooner loves new people, if you're wondering he’s not a beagle. He is a French Bulldog, and he toots like an African Bullfrog. My dog is very special to me, he means a lot, it's almost impossible to tear us apart, French Bulldogs are known for their toots, I think that just makes them even more cute! If you walk into my house, it will make you feel like you just fell into the abyss of happiness, where everybody is equal. My house is amazing in many different ways like the vibe and many ways I can’t even describe. Most people don’t realize how lucky they are to have a roof to sleep under, but I want to help those who don’t, and that's why I entered this contest, because even if I don’t win I contributed to the help and that’s all that matters. Home is a safe place where you can share good news and bad news. Home is a place where you can express yourself to all. Home is great and an amazing place, and there's so much love in every little space. I love my home and you love yours, I love my home so much I even love the floors. I go outside my home and I play on my basketball hoop. I love it so much I get joy every time I shoot. That was my first poem and I really hope you liked it, and I hope that this helped people with no home. You have heard it from me. Sincerely, Chaysen Best
