(Home Sweet Home, Jeremiah Morelli)

.

I welcome you here, dear stranger,

To my humble little abode,

Come rest away from the danger

For long and tiring is the road.

The fire in the hearth is warm

And the company intriguing,

Do stay at least until the storm

Has passed away in the morning.

To entertain you I shall be,

An interesting story, sharing,

Of a young man and a love spell.

Oh but don’t worry my dear child,

For you won’t miss a single thing;

Said the old woman as she smiled.

A fun twist (at least I hope it is) I came up with when I was writing The Home of the Teller.
