The Blessing Of Home

Home is more than just four walls, It is the place I was raised and the love between our family grew stronger, Home is a place to be yourself and express how you feel, Taking that all away would leave just a structure, windows, and a door, Looking around my home I see the memories that lay, The family pictures with our family story behind the frame, My bedroom all personalized to me; it can be anything I want it to be. Home is the warmth of my mother's hug, Or the protection of my dog's soft fur, Home is Thanksgiving dinner with family on all ends of the table, Home is having family movie night and falling asleep knowing I am safe, Home is family BBQs filled with laughter and my mom’s homemade cookies, Home is the feeling of joy and cheer after coming home from a night away, It is the little things, a relaxing night after a small board game fight, Home is the stockings lining the fireplace as we all snuggle close for some hot chocolate, It is the scent of bubble bath after a long day. Home is what you make it, It is where love is taught, Let the happiness of home take you away, Home is something personal it is something of your own, A house is bought but a home is made with love and family, Though home is not something everyone has, So, we must do our best to help and volunteer or donate, Home should not be place for worries or doubts, It should be a place to rest and be happy, It is a blessing, and I am so thankful that I can go home.
