What is Home To Me?

I slept on a park bench in the rain. That is not home to me. I walked around looking for food until my feet gave up. That is not home to me. I got sore feet from walking on the pavement with no shoes. That is not home to me. I froze my fingers off in the winter cold. That is not home to me. I got sunburnt in the scorching summer heat. That is not home to me. I was shooed away after I tried to ask for a meal. That is not home to me. I found some rotten burgers in the trash to eat. That is not home to me. I had to hug myself to keep warm. That is not home to me. I lost my backpack to a bunch of criminals. That is not home to me. Oh how I wonder, what is it like to be free? Sleeping on a warm bed. That is home to me! Eating to my heart's content. That is home to me! Wearing warm fuzzy slippers. That is home to me! Having warm gloves for the winter cold. That is home to me! A hat to protect me from the scorching summer heat. That is home to me! Having delicious meals. That is home to me! Yummy juicy burgers. That is home to me! Warm hugs from friends and family. That is home to me! The prettiest bag to carry all my things. That is home to me! Oh how I love my home! It is just perfect for me!
