Open Door


A nice open door waits ahead
To a place in which I was led
I'm ready for freedom and peace
A settled place, stress can release

I'm ready for the views and space
to bring a smile back to my face
Quiet relief and inspired
to rest, from being so tired

Chaotic days are left behind
The open door, new things to find
When I'm there, I will celebrate 
My gifts, my life and destined fate

You left some disagreeable place behind. The new one is better. Keep safe.

A door to heaven, perhaps? Very nice! We can’t imagine such piece!
