A door just opened on a street

August 22, 2008 in Life, Poems | No comments

A door just opened on a streetA door just opened on a street –
I, lost, was passing by –
An instant’s width of warmth disclosed,
And wealth, and company.

The door as sudden shut, and I,
I, lost, was passing by, –
Lost doubly, but by contrast most,
Enlightening misery.
