Day 2374, who’s listening.

Daily picture, Poetry

There is a big red alarm bell 
hanging outside my house

In an emergency I can sound it
but I have no neighbors
and live alone 

at least I can hear it
myself
and turn it on
myself
when I need it
myself

Day 2372, bland.

Daily picture, Poetry
It sometimes helps
to know how a door looks 
when meeting someone bland

Day 2341, strange.

Daily picture, Poetry
A green door
on number four
with three locks
three door bells
four nameplates 
and one mailbox

Day 1470.jpg

Colorful doorway

to a winter weathered door

an empty keyhole

Day 1430, key.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1430.jpg

These doors

in front of me

don’t tell

where they

lead

to

~

maybe

to the other

side

or

a cellar

a loft

storage

~

do I need a key

Day 1420, opening up.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1420.jpg

The old door

is corroded

over the years

~

it’s not

maintained

but

what inside

is still vivid

Day 1271, choice.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1271.jpg

A black

heavy

dark door

~

a postbox

~

and a message

to deliver

Day 1074, I look.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1074-1.jpg

Through a peephole I look

afraid, and see a dark forest.

The door won’t open.

Day 1055, a door.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1055-1.jpg

A door, lost in nowhere

black painted iron, half sunken in still white snow

I stare, get lost, did I go through?

Is it even open?

the whiteout hides, footsteps passing

maybe I leaped, I will not know, so

I leave the door behind

dreaming of other pastures

on one of two sides.
