What Home Means to Me

H - Home is not just a building, place, or materials, O - On or in it, it is where lives are made. M - Middle, small, or even big lives almost everyone needs one to grow, E - Eating, drinking, playing, it’s where pain, happiness, suffering, or excitement happen. M - Me too, or even you are growing up in a home, you could grow up to be an engineer, mechanic, scientist, or someone who made the world a better place, just because of how you are raised in your home. E - Eating in a restaurant, swimming in a waterpark, going on a ferris wheel in a theme park, learning at school, there is so much to do in life but, home holds those memories in it. A - And don’t forget about family, your mom, your dad, your uncle or uncles, your grandparents, your great grandparents, they all love you even if they are- N - Not on earth anymore. S - Still even if they aren’t they still share all the memories in the house you live in even if they never saw it, T - They will watch you from heaven, through all the happy and sad times. O - On heaven is a beautiful place the home for the angels, home one earth is the same thing just with a bit on sin, M - Me you and everyone I and you know all agree on the same thing, home is a household of memories, happiness and sadness, family and friends, it is where- E - Everyone goes. So next time you hear someone say “home is just a bunch of bricks” show them this poem, maybe they will learn like we do in school. That is the meaning of home to me.
