Knock and it Shall be Open

The passage came

within a dream,

in barely a whisper,

an echo of long ago

reminding me...

open the door,

move away the fear,

go where you dare not,

follow the path,

and there-

I would find you,

your hand,

your heart to hold.

I have this door knocker !

I hung it upside down (so the hand hangs out) next to the bathroom mirror to hold a small towel across.

Just sharing !

This is what I started doing six years ago. It's amazing how far you can travel (and on so many levels) when you let go of fear.

Dear Corey,
what beautiful clear words. I am curious as to the history and meaning of these lovely knockers with the hands?

Oh this is stunning! I love old statues and the chemical reaction that takes place through years and years of being exposed to the elements...beautiful!

Lovely words as well. Perfect for a Sunday morning.
