A house, a home (Poem and Translation)


Translate this page:

A House, A Home

What is the difference between a house and a home? Discuss it with your partner. Then read the poem.

What is a house? 
It's brick and stone 
And wood that's hard.
Some window glass 
And perhaps a yard.
It's eaves and chimneys
And tile floors
And stucco and roof
And lots of doors.

What is a home?
It's loving and family
And doing for others.
It's brothers and sisters
And fathers and mothers.
It's unselfish acts
And kindly sharing
And showing your loved ones
You're always caring.

-- Lorraine M. Halli
