The Simple Connection

The brass reflective
door knob lock
plays guessing games
with rings of keys.
Trying desperate attempts
to enter
with solemn darkness
hindering vision
the simple connection
becomes impossible.

Standing, shivering
in the darkness
a sliver of a streak
of starlight
gives determination  
a second chance
yet with the stumbling
element of stupidity
the simple connection
remains impossible

Easy?
Well, yeah, she does make it look easy...
This is great! I like how the whole thing looks like a flower vase...makes it look even better (if that's possible!)  

Great job, Lost Dreamer!
Hope you won't be lost for long...

I like it!  When I read this poem I relate it to every day life (which may not be your intent) - making wrong choices, missing obvious connections.

Sometimes things that seem so simple are far from it, that's for sure. This is great, Gloria!

Janet Marie: Thank You very much, I have to admit I've been on a roll, I'm glad you've been enjoying them. It's one thing to be on a roll, it's another thing to please also. I hope I can keep it up cause I dislike it when I am empty.

Little_Spyro: Thank You for your kind words, I am having a problem seeing the vase myself though, but if you saw it and thought it looks good I take your word for it, sometimes we can't see half of what other people gather from our poetry

childomine: Thank You, I like what you saw in the poem, my vision was focused on a certain situation.

Denise: Thank You very much, yes simple isn't always so easy.
