The Key Holder

Open
A gate, a key
To greater turmoil
Overture to greater beauty
Unspoiled.

Fear not
Discovery
When your eyes look upon
Rough trail, hiding territory
Beyond.

Count not,
Walk regardless
Of the pros and the cons
Dreams are in the making, unless
You doubt.

Seek Ye
That gate, that key
That you may come to know
Treasure untold; that ye the key
Do hold.

Dear Caroline, I got your message and be assured it will take time to feel whole again. Shorter relationships seem to take less time. My prayers are with you. Love, Carolynx

That's good advice. It was given me when I was younger but as with Daver I guell I thought it did not pertain to me and was always afraid to try. Strange phenomenon but not rare. enjoyed the poem Caroline.

I like the positive tone of this one. My whole life I was afraid to do many things - write, compose music, paint. When I retired I tried all of the above and had a ball doing it. Love, Dave

Inspiring in so many ways, Caroline. I do believe we hold the keys to our own fate, but sometimes fear has us making poor choices. Love, Carolyn
