Thistle Down

By Ethel

Welcome Mats

My Welcome-Mats...
Lay by my door.
It means to come in,
And a whole lot more.

It means...I want you,
To be with me.
To look in my eyes,
And with me be.

It means...you are my friend,
From over the way.
That you can come in,
And with me stay.

It means...that I enjoy,
Of having you in.
Be ye my neighbors,
Or some of my kin.

It means...come in and partake,
That the link that binds...is true.
That we are partners in togetherness,
And my heart...it loves you.


E.P. 1908 - 1989
