Doors

the doors of our lives . . .
can be
multifaceted, complex, and sometimes
downright scuzzy  
still, every so often we open a special one
which immediately makes us smile
a chance encounter
a special word  
Happiness 'R Us
sometimes we find this new door
to be almost virginal
not having opened one in such a long time
and, having stepped inside
we are infused with a feeling of harmony
it surrounds us
broadens, even wider our smile
when we perchance find such a door
close our eyes and ears
to other worldly things
and silently close the door behind us
