A Home is Not a House

A house isn't a home but you can make a home from a house. Filled with laughter and love and family chaos builds a home for me A safe place to cry, a secure feeling. This is home to me. Engulfed in a pink warm blanket watching comedy movies. This is home for me. Burning candle smelling, sugary and sweet. This is home to me. Travelling ,touring and memories being made. This is home to me. Jumping waves as they crash on the shore. The smell of salt water is a home I adore.
