Guest
By his glad host loved more than the rest!
A guest himself tries to look his best:
In his host’s house free to wear his crest,
Host spending on him like on farm’s past…
No doubt to Guest: Host House a real nest:
Much like a suckling Host’s cares ‘A breast;
Fame one must have touched for ‘A Guest’
The wonders one had wrought in the East,
Some ‘can’t-forget’ one left in the West;
One’s brash conquest of unique test…
The hotels in towns declare one Guest,
Their suites ready where Sweet Guest may rest
But I guess this should be Business’ Test
While I could choose to act like a pest…
After service claim “Far from impressed”
And that next time charges shall be pressed!”
