Love Poem: The Doorkeeper

The Doorkeeper

Out of opening doors
pours the past into a hallway
and You come to sweep away
times' trial.  You who gave me
another life to love before you took your own.
Now here You stand, a Being
in the hallway of my mind,
the ether of My Man.

Do you see us too?
Can you see how old I have become
and the fine man that is our son?

Out of other doors flung open
step those I used to try and forget.
They're best left in their closets, forgotten.

But You, oh You are springtimes' salty tears.
If I could bring the Light of Life back into you,
the door of my heart would open again.
