BARN DOORS

 

The old barn doors, planks the color of rain, creak open, groaning.

Dust dances, swirling in rays of yellow light.

Air, the smell of leather and dung.

There’s a stirring, 

A portal, 

Knowing, 

I want to climb and hide from the world but not today.

Today, once more I reach through rays of dusty light for the mud caked shovel.

Work for the night is coming yet always remember the light.
