Home is where the heart beats

A home is not just walls and beams, It's where your heart finds room to dream. Where laughter echoes through the hall, And love is there to catch you when you Fall. It's the warm light on chilly nights, With the quiet comfort, soft and bright, A place to grow and a place to rest, A refuge where you're always known. A home is not just a cube with a roof, It's where your heart can always bloom. Where joy is brought and never bought, And love is always there too. Maybe a home is Where you always grow, But you will still always be known. At a house you feel alone, but at a home You feel regrown. When at a house, All you see is a raven. But At a home,it feels just like haven. Starting a home brings a long, Rich story, then ends with peace, Or glory. A home is always a place to Embrace,where you can truly show your Face. Houses have dreams that are always chased, Then comes a home that you can embrace. Houses are structures with an address,but Homes are loving, made to impress. Houses confess and often bring stress, But homes express and leave you obsessed. Houses possess and never impress,but homes Bless and bring a princess. Houses squeeze and always tease, But homes bring peace and leave you at ease. Houses are low and never flow,but homes show A bright warm glow. Thank you to Habitat for Humanity.🙂
