This was created for a poet who just had a dream come true.

The blessing of every poet is to have a welcome mat
To invite in the dreams that will fill the place
With the words that will line the walls
Creating pictures that only poets can capture
In the warmth that a poets hearts can feel
Wrapping the walls within with the comfort of love
Creativity abounds for each room has to have a face
Each having an identity to fantasize from
A place so special that it is called home sweet home
Where the door to ideas will never die
For the mat that welcome you
Will live in the works created within this special place
In a poetic wonderland
