A Home is Not a House

In a house you can have furniture and lights but at home you have laughter by night. A house has four corners, a roof, and a door However, a home has love that can't be Bought at a store. A house has walls and stairs but at a home has memories that are Loved and shared. A house is a man-made structure with Bricks and wood but a Home has love And laughter that brightens your Childhood. A house can be grand, with walls painted or bare But a home has warmth, that lingers in the air. A house may have furniture, shiny and neat But a home has laughter, and a heart that beats. A house can be big, with space to roam But a home is where you feel truly known. A house may have a yard, with trees and grass But a home has love, that will forever last. A house may have a fancy design, But a home is where true beauty shines, With laughter, joy, and comfort too, It’s where you can truly be you. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for everything You are doing for the Community and building Homes for the people in Need.
