Lucky Lucky Lucky Lucky Me

Heaven’s door was not as pretty as I had originally hoped.
I was not repulsed, I was intrigued actually.
I knocked once politely.  No one came.
So I knocked three small knocks.
Nothing.

That’s not the right door, someone said.
I was shocked. How did he know?
His head was wrapped in a big bandage.
I followed him in spite of my reservations.

He had found a bigger brighter, shinier door.
He knocked and promptly disappeared.
I knocked and 
nothing…..

Several other doors were found.
Keep trying! An angel yelled to me. You are doing great.
Everyone has their own door!
This was amazing to me.
