Jars of light
sitting patiently waiting
for you to arrive,
cheerful quiet peace awaits
a glass of wine and a friend
Music to soothe the stress away,
a hand to hold
an ear to lend
we’ve been waiting for you to come
join the evening party
of that which is life.
Let us raise a toast
laughter and singing will be had
merriment we shall surely make
this corner spot
away from the world
warm humid nights
and fireflies to see
dreams to weave and happiness abound.
Come, we are waiting here for you,
the candles are lit
the jars sit pretty
flickering welcome committee
to a new moment
in your every typical day.
sit back and relax,
the party’s just starting
with you, the guest of honor
so glad you could come.
welcome my sweet friend.
