Home is like the smell of the ocean seas

The wind rustling the naked fall trees

A dog finally catching their tail

Receiving a letter from your favorite person in the mail

Biting into a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie

Someone being drafted to their dream team as a rookie

The feeling of a big comfy sweatshirt

Rolling down a grass hill and being covered in dirt

Home is a feeling in your heart

A place you’ve belonged from the start

Like the owl who lives in the tree

There is always a place for me

Home is the place for self expression

There is no room for any aggression

Thus coming home will bring me peace

And my happiness will ultimately increase.
