DESTINATIONS - From There To Here and Here To There
Red Door Policy
She said
They say
It says
Welcome!
Welcome home!
So
Off she went
Paint brush in hand
Red paint on door
In hair, on arms
Pretty much on all the rest of her
Too
But
It was just in time
For her soldier
Much too long away
To see at his first glance
And say
What's with the red door?
This, while he touched her face
With gentle strokes, as if
To make sure this was not
Just another dream
The look in his eyes, the one
Melting her heart
Every time.
She said
And smiled
And touched him, just as tenderly
Don't you know?
Then
Let me show you.
