The Wall
We seem to grope blindly
as we look for the door through the wall
Whenever we see an opening
It seems to just as quickly close
we try to remain hopeful
there has to be a way through
maybe if we all join hands
we can together lead the charge
to kick down the blasted wall.
This is for my prompt at What's Going On? -- Openings and Closings
I was amazed when the Berlin wall fell........so I have to believe we will inevitably swing back to better times than these.

ReplyDeleteOf course "the blasted wall" Will go. I loved to see Hope as being the 'Opening'. Closing lines read like prayer and action as well. Well put, Mary.
