come on over, but call first

i take
the sign down
off the front door.
the go away sign.
busy.
occupied,
no solicitors,
no venders.
i roll up the
you're not welcome
mat
and put it in the basement.
i'm taking visitors again.
i flip on the green
light that blinks,
vacancy.
rooms available.
heart now open.
it's been that
kind of winter. a long
lonely winter.
please, pop on over
when you can,
but
call first.
