The Door
Open the door
Open it wide
I don’t want to sneak out or hide
I want to walk free and strong
The soft breeze beckons me
The sun waits impatiently to throw all its shining light onto me
The moon wants to hold me in its soft cushiony arms and rock me to sleep
The gentle river wants to soothe me and soak me in its healing juice
The birds want to sing me away my bluest blues
The delicious food on the table is waiting to be savored by me
The community is at the door
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting…
To hold me close in their warm love
I must go now
Open the door
Open it wide
Set me free
