What Home Means To Me

Home is where I laugh and play, Where happiness fills every day. The morning sun shines through my room, Chasing away the night and gloom. My cozy bed keeps me warm, It’s where I rest through every storm. The walls are filled with love and care, And memories made everywhere. It’s where I share my meals with pride, With Mom and Dad right by my side. Their hugs are strong, their smiles are bright, They make my days feel safe and light. Mom bakes cookies that smell so sweet, Dad tells stories I love to repeat. They guide me through both highs and lows, Their love’s the greatest gift I know. Home is more than just a place, It’s filled with kindness, love, and grace. No matter where my feet may roam, My heart will always call this home. But I know not everyone feels this way, Some don’t have a safe place to stay. A bed to sleep, a meal to share, A home filled with love and care. Everyone deserves a place to rest, A warm, safe space where they feel blessed. Because home is more than just a place— It’s laughter, love, and a warm embrace.
