Door of Trust

Home be my heart

Where you, dearest, reside

Your ceiling be my love

Your floor my care

Your lamp my passion

Your door, my trust

 

Break not then, that trust

For a ceiling can be shingled

And a floor redone

A lampshade can be replaced

But a door, my dear,

Can only be cut out once
