THE DOOR Poem by Adam Wyeth

THE DOOR



I sit in the garden
taking the late sun
as it sinks and slides
between the side
of the house
and the hawthorn.
Trailing the bench
across the lawn
to catch a final
finger of warmth,
a golden stretch
comes to rest
on a patch
of grass at my feet —
like a door.
A door in which
I wait for your
shadow to darken;
the door, which is
always left open.
