Let it in
Let it come
Whatever it is
Warts and all
No more locks
No more guards
No more wishing
Things were different
No more sifting
This yes
This no
Just a letting go
A dropping of walls
With the certainty
At long last
That you can handle
Whatever comes along
Even your worst fears
You’re strong enough now
Let in come in
Put its feet on the ottoman
Let it move
Through your rooms
Around every corner
And out the back door
To wherever its
Path leads next
All your guests
You’ve discovered
Are temporary
Moving through
Your AirBnB life
Here today
Gone tomorrow
So put out the
Welcome mat
Greet it at the door
Even what used to
Cause you misery
Let it freely pass
Whatever it is
Show Patience
Understanding
And Appreciation
(Especially to
Unwanted guests)
For the
Mighty
Growth
They
Bring
In
Their
Wake.
Your house
Grows bigger
With every
Visitor.
