House's & Homes - By: Maia Nourozi

Houses and homes

What's the difference?


A house is

a structure

with a roof

a place

to sleep

to eat


A home is

a part of your family

with a blanket

protecting you from

the outdoors,

it's filled with love,

cuddles on the couch

and memories

that hold

happiness ☀


So what's the difference?

You tell me.

The meaning and main idea of this poem is that sometimes where you live isn't your home. As in a place you feel safe. Your "home" could be anywhere, ot you could be at home wherever as long as you're with certain people.

When writing this poem I was reflecting on a period of my life when I moved to another place. I noticed the difference between a house and a home and bam! a poem came.


Why did you choose to write this poem?


I chose to write this poem because my family had to move and that's when I realized as long as I'm with my family they can make anywhere feel like home.
