POEM: The Door of Nevermore

Posted on June 25, 2020 by B Gourley

This morning, walking, I saw a new door.
I’ve walked that stretch a million times, or more,
and that door has never been there before.

You probably think they just cut the ivy,
or that my imagination ‘s lively.

But, this evening, that door was no more.

Two (or more) ways this poem can be interpreted. To me, it’s a missed chance. Enter it now (be in the present) or it won’t be there.
