My House

My house is an important place
where my family and I live together happily.

I can see…
Three lovely bedrooms filled with goodness and toys,
four fabulous people called Jean, Breanna, Talia and Paul who produce noise.
a mural of photographs hanging in an organised way on the wall,
small dogs running around the yard who think they are tall.

I can hear…
The rumbling pool pump that goes around all day long,
people talking 24/7 makes me want to sing a sweet song.
the sweet ballet music when I practice my dance skills,
Mum on the phone talking to Dad about the upcoming bills.

I can feel…
Happiness when my delightful dog Marley smoothers me with a slobbery kiss,
saddened when my hard-working dad goes way to the mines, who I terribly miss.
The comfortable grey couch against my skin that feels soft to touch,
safe as ever when surrounded by family who I love so much.

Since I was born my house has always been mine and
it has seen me grow into a responsible young lady.
