A Simple Poem of Home

A Home is a refuge, not just four walls, A place where you can be yourself. Memories echoing through the halls, A place of comfort, in itself. A Home is a place of laughter and fun, Where you’ve shared memories with everyone. Though you have quarrels, your family loves you, The smells and the sounds are familiar too. A Home is a place where you belong, A place you feel trusted, and also loved. Somewhere that is always beloved, A place where you sometimes sing songs. A Home is also a place of warmth. Somewhere you can sit under a quilt, While a cold wind blows from the North, Drinking Hot Cocoa at full tilt. A Home is something I will always remember, Somewhere I live, safe and warm, A stronghold from the mental storms And of this home, I will always be a member.
