Love's Window

When one door is closed,
Young love may go through some stages,
While window is open.

many people can relate to this<: it reminds me of something. when your heart is closed, and you lose faith of it opening back up to a new love, thats when you discover, theres always someone that has that key.

Mr. Hopper's works are receiving a lot of attention. I'll have to check out this painting. It sounds like a good description of love's transitional stages. Very enjoyable senryu Marti! Love, Carolyn
