I See A Red Door …

 Red is for danger
 so beware
 You would enter
 this door,
 assuming you could even reach it,
 at your own risk
 

 If I were to let you in
 it would be by invitation only
 On my terms
 I would control your entry
 from the inside
 No coming and going 
 as you please
 

 I do not know you well
 and I no longer trust
 

 So be it

 Sanaa from A Dash of Sunny is hosting D'Verse Poets tonight
 and she has prompted us with minimalist photography using photos
 provided by fellow poet and photographer Glenn Butkus. Check out
 his amazing photos on the D'Verse page. I chose the Red Door for my poem

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

  1. Beautifully poignant, and I love the caution here. Seems like the narrator’s walls are built up for good reason. Excellent writing!

  4. Ah yes, if doors could speak what sordid sweet tales they would tell. This RED DOOR image has been the most popular one out here. I chose to write on it myself.
