Twas the day of the home inspection 
and all through the house
not a creature was stirring
not even a mouse (he already left his mess in the insulation in the attic).
The buyer was nestled all snug in their thoughts
thinking and planning where to put all the furniture that will be bought.
The home inspector moved through the house with care
making sure to note all the items the buyer should be aware.
Electrical, plumbing and HVAC galore,
The roof, the exterior, the interior and more.
A couple of hours of inspecting had passed
and now the home inspector looked up at the ceiling for the last task.
He got out his ladder and climbed to the top
then moved the attic hatch and and went up with a hop.
He moved through the attic and kept a good eye
making sure everything would be safe for the occupants inside.
He finished the job and went to his laptop
and entered the pictures and finished right up.
The buyers were waiting with joy and concern
and the inspector was eager to share what was learned.
Sometimes the news is good and sometimes it's bad
but the inspector is honest with the information he has.
The buyers now know the condition of the home
and whether they buy or the leave the home inspector usually never knows.
But he goes to his own house and lays down his head
because he sleeps well at night knowing the good job that he did.
I don't know how or why this came to me but I went with it and thought I'd share it. There are many good and honest home inspectors out there and we sleep good at night because we do what's right for our clients.
Be safe out there.

I originally composed this on the 18th but didn't finalize it until today.
