I am the Guardian of treasure,
Gate-keeper to another world -
Let all who would enter be clean from the inside out,
And all who would pollute
Depart.
Be warned: my rules are firm,
For I will not bend from rightness,
Nor sway to your winds:
My duty is to the future,
And here will I lay my foundations
That my treasure stays most pure.
Take not, for I will take from you:
But come in peace and joy
And joy shall be your reward.

Every parent wants to keep their children away from bad influences. This poem is all about protecting your kids; any other children who would enter the house / their innocent world had better be upright and true, and prepared to follow the rules.
Why write this? I was just starting to get a load of hassle from damaged / disturbed kids.
