A Hundred Miles

my weary trudge along a hundred miles
       through rugged roads lead my steps~
             to a closed iron gate

I am quite a positive person, so after walking all that way, I am sure you'll be pleased to see that gate open up as soon as you approach, dear Valsa. Sacrifices are not meant to be made in vain! ~ Best regards // paul

I too am positive. Hope the door will open. Enjoyed your half humorous and half serious comment.

Not all journeys end at open doors. Alternative routes a necessity -- though the heart is stubborn. Got me thinking. A fine write!
