Lang May Your Lum Reek

“Lang May Your Lum Reek"

Leave 
A light on
Like 
A fire aglow
Keep 
One burning
As
A warm hello 

Leave
A light on
Illuminate 
The way
Let 
Neighbors know
They’re 
Welcome to stay

Leave 
A light on
Not
Just for books
It’s says
You’re welcome 
Come
Into my nook

Leave a light on
Its 
Simple to do
If 
Down turns them 
Off
It’s 
All up for you

Thank you kindly Jeff! A neighbor mentioned she wanted to stop by for a visit but didn’t see a light on… Simple inspirations are great!
