Open Door

Glow from slight open door shining my way casting a long shadow of me behind. I stand alone and think awhile, midway; glow from slight open door shining my way. Portal crossed, shadows fall the other way, as does the light. The choice is ill-defined. Glow from slight open door shining my way, casting a long shadow of me behind.

Terry you are amazing! I tried and tried and gave up. I just couldn't get my head around a triolet. Yours flows so well and makes sense! Well done.
