Home

A home is a space, Soft and sweet, Through a message and phrase, We can all relate. Home is your space, To truly shine, Where love and comfort, Are emotions that abide. Home is a safe space, No matter its size, With everlasting memories, Full of laughter and sigh. A Home is a healing place, To look at the pictures, Where your past unfolds, And your future’s still untold. Home is a place, That will stand for ages, So don’t tear it down, From your relations. Home is your land, Your personal space, Where no one can boss you, Just cut the cake… To all those people, Who don’t have homes, Just know that there’s someone, Who has good bones. Homes are like gemstones, Each room made out of precious love, Not a house, But the true beauty of a home. Home is a dream palace, Where you feel most appealing, Where you can accomplish your dreams, And fly high out of your reach. Homes can be anything (unlike houses), So don’t be a fool, Just because it looks dull. Home is a space, Where I can gleam with pride, A home can even be a country, That’s connected to your mind. So be proud where you’re from, Because a true heart, Wouldn't leave its roots, Because it's big time loot. Home is like a church, Where I can put my Christian belief in God, He will be the man I will trust, Because he will (and forever) be my God. Our days in this “mortal” world are not much, So make the most of it, And know that you are loved. A house is just made of materialized possessions, But a home, Is made out of love, That is sent out, Like a dove.
