Nobody Needs a House But Everybody Needs a Home

When I stroll through the door the scent of freshly baked cookies fills the air, when I strut up the stairs I feel the frizzy and woolly carpet stairs that I can feel on the soles of my feet, I see my golden puppy sprinting down with her tail swaying round and round like a helicopter. In the living room my parents are sitting there sweet as a dove. There I know that every little bit of their love is there for me. I feel lucky and blissful to be at home with friends and family I adore with every single little bit of my wonderful self. I get a glance of the snow on the mountains and have hot cocoa and warm embraces from my exquisite family. I know I have to go to rest when the twilight sky glows when my eyes close and have marvelous and exquisite dreams. At the end of the day I know my home is the right place to be no matter what. No one needs a house but everyone needs HOME.
