Said the Door

Said the door! The door SAID, "I am tired. Every day I get slammed in. What am I just a piece of wood or metal? Have I no feelings? God forbids one of you gets angry, you'll slam me so hard I fall off my hinges! Then comes the thieves, they kick me in! What a set of rascals! Most of all I hate those police squads, they come with these big ugly pile driving things that send me to smithereens. Now the only people I will give permission to knock me in are fire fighters. Them guys are always trying to help someone. Why can you all be like them, Help someone. Matters not it's a bum, someone next door who need a ride to the grocery store, whoever, whatever it is, don't think twice just do it." © A. Juman The "said" poet 11/8/2015 Type In (A. JUman) For A relaxing and astonishing moment with all my POEMS

Very observant, and we should also recognize that doors open and close when we call them opportunity, hopefully they do not close too soon. It is always nice to give freinds and neighbors a hand, I carry some down to the Acme grocery store or Dunkin donuts when I see them walking in that direction. Lots of people in my neighborhood neither drive nor have anyone in the family who drives. so I keep an eye out for them.
