Hello!

Welcome, come on in. I’m open for business.


What can I get you? A glass of water, a snack?

A warm hug, a pat on the back?


Stay as long as you like; leave a tip or don’t.

We’ve been running for a decade and we’ll run for decades more.


Hmm, what’s that? A special request?

I can’t make any promises, except that I’ll do my best!

 

While you’re here, why don’t I show you around?

A brisk walk and fresh air is the remedy for that frown!


Go on ahead, if you’re so inclined,

I don’t mind following a few steps behind.


Hold on, oh dear, please don’t go there

Don’t ask, don’t pry, don’t force me to share


No, don’t worry, I’ll be just fine

There’s nothing grave, only some secrets of mine.


I have an idea! I’ll fetch some refreshments

You need something in your stomach, a return on your investment


Oh my, you’re leaving so soon?

We’ve only just begun, it’s hardly past noon.


Oh, well, I look forward to your next visit!

Be sure to tell your friends; I’ll still be open for business.
