Promises Colored With Yellow

                

This post is for Yellow Mellow Monday, a site I have seen on Becca’s site that she connects to and I find I do as well.  Find them at http://mellowyellowmonday.blogspot.com

 

Yellow roses remind          
me of another place
another time when
promises seemed to
only require the
saying of “I do

Closed Doors

Crystallization of promises
empty, bereft, void of
new beginnings

tattered remnants of
wind-blown flags
announcing images
hewn on stone

an audience of one
behind closed doors
only visions of
dreams becoming
something more

brandishing a looking
glass tantamount to
something tangible
discovery of
peace in living
as oneself believing                      

unbridled freedom as
passion limited only
by closed doors
opened by
estuaries limitless
pathways giving
into possibilities

a cryptic meaning
rhythmic beating of
a heart still waiting

Discovering that the
Door is Always Open
