A Home is Made of Love

A home and a house are two different things A house is where your doorbell rings But a home is made with love A house is a structure with walls and doors A home is not only halls and floors A home is love and joy and hope Where we laugh and play and learn to cope Homes carry memories and people we love Our love, in a home, flies high like a dove A home is more than rooms Or a place to store your brooms A home is more than lights It’s full of peaceful delights Like bees, we live in our home – our hive The people inside it make it come alive We brighten the world and brighten our house Ever so slightly, just like a mouse My family and I are happy to live With warmth, food and water to give A home is not only a place you go A home is also a place you know You cannot buy a home You will buy and wait For a home is made of love Home you must create Home is where you live and grow Home is a place we know A home can be anywhere For a home is made of love
