A short poem

Home should be a safe place.

A refuge from the outside world constantly demanding more from us, or telling us we failed in some way.

Home should be filled with peace, moments of stillness, and other moments of raucous laughter.

A place where your fondest memories live, along with your favorite people.

You should crave home, seeking its shelter when the world around is topsy turvy.

And home must be found in your own, beating heart.
