You never know where you may find it!

It creeps in through the sunlight.

It kisses you on your eyelids.

It wraps you safe with all its might.

I don't know how to describe it!

It is a haven for memories and hidden treasures.

It's a place where your dreams fit!

It's sharing warm meals in chilly weather.

They can play with it but can't deny it!

It gives blossoms to our roots.

It's something you can have and still miss.

It's the final victory, to long commutes.

We really should create it!

It is a space, when the world is too crowded.

It's adventures for the wise and the kids.

It's where love is not perfect, but solid.

Some may ask, what is it?

Once gone, are you lonely?

But it, it is home.

And home is just the journey!
