Caren Krutsinger Poet Light Verse

The Closet Door

The closet door is partially open, 
	More than a crack.
		Yet I cannot see 
			The goblins yet.

My heart beats wildly as my imagination soars me back to
	Childhood when I could feel the angry mean bogeyman
		Under my bed, ready to grab my feet 
			Or my hand.

Oh, yes, the closet door is open.

Lyric Man August 10, 2018 at 10:00 PM Caren, reading this created a few flashback moments. Great write!! Caren Krutsinger August 10, 2018 at 11:58 PM thank you Lyric Man. I was sitting in my overstuffed chair, when I happened to notice the closet door slightly ajar and my heart began beating really fast!
