Come for a cup
Stay for the whole pot
Come for some sugar
Stay for the pie
Come with an egg
Stay to hatch some gossip
There's something about this house.
Come to have a word
Stay for a conversation
Come with an agenda
Stay for the laughter
Come with nothing
Stay for dinner and ice cream
There's something about this house.
Come for a minute
Stay for an hour
Come in from the cold
Stay for the warmth
Come as a neighbor
Leave as a friend
There's something about this house.

Could be a great song, but certainly a great poem. Really enjoyed it, especially , come as a neighbor leave as a friend!
I absolutely adore this one. I live in an 'something about this house' home. For 22 years I have been content in this place, despite the loud music, laughter and teenagers I trip over of a morning.....!
I think everyone would want their house to be like that...
Come for a minute
Stay for an hour
I like visitors like that! :)
