at the doorstep ....
 



the door is not always open 

the windows sometimes clouded 

a mist shrouds the welcome mat 

yet the wind is not ice 

the rain not sharp 

. 

I hesitate and then brush 

my feet along the sidewalk 

past flowers not yet in bloom 

birds in flight but not song 

yet color and sound still flourish 

. 

I canvass the neighboring streets 

for a moment to release 

the freeze holding my heart 

yet leave the photograph blank 

for another day 

. 

the door is not always open 

yet I am always invited in
