The Lobby
A lobby's meant to represent
The building it is fronting,
To welcome all who enter
From the elements it's blunting.
It may be fancy, to impress
Or functional and boring
But either way, it greets us
From its ceilings to its flooring.
And whether an apartment, office,
Inn or a hotel,
The lobby sends a message
Not too easy to dispel.
It lets us know if we fit in
Or if we don't belong
And nothing can convince us
That our feelings might be wrong.
