The Meaning of Home

Home is silly, cozy and warm. Sometimes quiet, sometimes a storm. I get teased for being small, my brother teases me most of all. We argue loud we laugh a ton, By the end of it we're friends again, having fun. My skinny cat jumps on the bed at night, kneads the blankets with all his might. He purrs so loud it’s like a song, My fat cat waddles down the hall, his little tummy jiggles when he runs at all. He bumps into walls, rolls on the floors, being this silly always makes me roar. Home is where I can be me, where my weird fits in perfectly. It’s where I laugh, it’s where I rest, It's where I feel safe and loved the best. Everyone deserves a place where they can slow down and play. A cozy home at the end of the day!
