SONNET: On House-warming

Oh, what a happy day it seems today?
House-warming function is about to start;
And people come with much good things to say;
A house, your own, you built per latest art!

Your labour hard, has brought you this great joy;
A time for fun and frolic, once again;
As kith and kin and siblings too enjoy;
An achievement, most wise and rather sane!

Congratulations on your achievement!
And many more good things must come your way;
A Home; it turns a 'House-warmed tenement',
Where dwells, a righteous family to pray!

But what about the soul-Abode of God?
So keep it pure for celestial reward.
