A House and a Home

A house can stand on any street, Its purpose clear, it’s look complete. But a home is where love aligns, A treasure shaped by despair’s decline. A house is made by construction, But nobody cares on its introduction. A home is built on hopeful belief, Without even a trace of grief. Both contain shelter of harm’s way, Yet a home has no sign of decay. There is a difference of the two, And people don’t know the few. So, know the difference, deep and true, A house is nothing without you. For it is love that makes a home, Even a house can be more than a dome.
