An Enchanted Place

"I open the door and cross the threshold of imagination"
A Rambling Poet 

An enchanted place
Where ex lovers still love me
Dead relatives live

Tears from the past dry
Years of mourning and pining
A forgotten dream
Failed attempts are successes
Rejections acceptances

Then I walk back through the doorway
 Ready to accept reality

Haiku, Tanka and Crystalline
Jack Horne for Constance’s Three Gems contest
Written 29th July
