A lessor is a landlord, you see,
Who owns a property and rents it out to thee.
They set the rules and collect the rent,
Making sure everything is properly sent.

If you're renting a house or a flat,
Your lessor is the one who's where it's at.
They own the property and give you the key,
To use and enjoy it, it's plain to see.
