Jenna Logan Poet Rhyme

A Secret Door

I own an upscale Jewelry store
Exquisite gems on the third floor
But on the fourth, I did explore
A secret door        A secret door

Once, I turned the key in the lock
I opened it, without a knock
There was a wall of cinder block
It was a shock       It was a shock

No one has guessed my nom de plume
so when a client starts to fume
I take my leave and quickly zoom 
To the back room     To the back room

For fast escapes from my affairs
or when my makeup needs repairs 
I rise a flight, by way of stairs 
I leap in pairs      I leap in pairs

What good's a door that goes nowhere?
Don't ask if you really don't care.
Only I know what's hidden there
I will not share      I will not share



*A Monotetra

Kenneth Cheney September 18, 2020 at 9:26 AM The secret to secrets is they must remain secret. Very interesting poem. Enjoyed the form. Jenna Logan September 19, 2020 at 2:00 AM You're absolutely right, Kenneth. Thank you for such kind thoughts.

John Watt September 17, 2020 at 11:50 PM I like this form and I like what you do with it. The mystery you weave about what lies behind that door, evocative... well done, friend. GL in the contest ~ John Jenna Logan September 18, 2020 at 4:37 AM Thanks ever so much, John. I appreciate your wonderful synonyms, but doubt I'll place in this contest. It was just a fun adventure to nowhere.

John Gondolf September 17, 2020 at 3:00 PM We should all have a secret door on the fourth floor to look for when we need to restore our sanity or repair our vanity (makeup). I have not seen this form before, I must try it sometime, well done. Best of luck in the contest, Jenna. Hugs, John Jenna Logan September 17, 2020 at 4:05 PM Thank you, John. I had a few lines floating around in my mind, so here it is.
