The Door
A door has opened and open stands
Beside the path where once a wall
Of stone had stood and no path led
But the known one stretching straight ahead.
My journey stopped I stand perplexed,
A door has opened and open stands,
Its invitation calling me
To explore a place of mystery.
I feel my breath come quickly now,
My heart is pounding in my chest,
A door has opened and open stands
And I know not what would be best.
For if it closes I would lose
This chance to wander verdant lands
Of beauty that inspires my soul…
A door has opened and open stands.

In using the quatrain form, I was inspired by 'Where Fingers Bled' by Winn, a beautifully evocative poem.
