With direction, purpose, et al
It stands gracefully like a wall,
Knocked, banged and slammed,
The door braves through it all.
Keys gossip and muckrake him,
Thresholds always resist him;
Sorrow sees him as an end,
The door serves us through it all.
Inviting, offering a sense of arrival,
He treasures that gaze of longing,
Or one leaning on it for closure…
The door secures us through it all.
