THERE IS A HOME

THERE IS A HOME

There is a home,
That accommodate a shattered soul,
& mysteriously patch-make it into one piece, a whole.
To the pride & arrogant,
It is invisibly malignant,
Whereas to the invariably benevolent,
It is obvious & exclusively magnificent.
Although the outside look rough & unattractive
As though worn out from so much grief.
But in it is a great stock of wealth,
Love & good health.
It is a place of sanctuary & of peace.
The freshness of its atmosphere comes with so much ease.
The down-hearted trade her pain with it
& gains a huge profit of elevating love forthwith.
All dern are safe therein
With no sign of daring.
Comfortability in this home is at its pinnacle,
Yet it comes with a due of affordable value.
What is this haven
With the serenity as like a heaven?
This is not home for goats but for the sheep.
There is a home, it is called FRIENDSHIP.

Structure is very important to your readers;
Break up into stanzas maybe of 4;

For example;
There's a home
I find hard to build;
every brick I place
slip away.

My cement is weak
it won't harden;
It's always wet
It never dries.

This is play on words to suggest how you can break up your poem structurally.
