The Door
Carried in through the door
The beginning of time
First stare then coo then crawl
Down the line.
Then walk
Then talk
Then back through the door
Always returning, returning once more.
The sun and the clouds,
The moon and the rain
The days and the nights
The joy and the pain
The pictures indecipherable
In a preschoolers scrawl
The wallpaper ripped from the bathroom wall.
The lines and the shapes
Take forms once unknown
Day to day living
On an iPhone
Last chapter finished
In a book still unread
Walk out of that door
A life still to explore
