Home Poem

When I go home after a long day, all my tension slips away, I feel free and happy, I go home to see my little brother, smiling at me happily, We have our family dinner, the warmth of the turkey and gravy, With the vegetables, that’s a maybe! We go and get cozy, for a family movie, then we go to the nice soft beds, the next morning we wake up to see joyful faces, and then that over again! Although it is different for me, with my parents divorced, all of my houses are loving and joyful! At my mom’s, when I get home from school, my friends are there, we order food, and dress up! Maybe we’re up till 4:30, but we have a blast! Now, what is home to me, home looks like fun, love, excitement, and family, home smells like fresh cinnamon buns and banana bread muffins, home feels like, warmth, freedom, happiness, and quality time, home picks you up when your down, and makes you happy, Home is a place to be me, to have fun, to be free, home can never be undone, Home is where the family spends time together, where you watch movies, where you have slumber parties, where you can be you, A home is a place where you can get disciplined, or rewarded, home is where you were brought after you were born, where you get ready for Prom, where you spend your whole life, Not always in the same house, but each one you have a connection to, for me, I have moved a good handful of times, but each one I remember, I miss, I will always reminisce about all the memories I have had at home, That is what home means to me.
