How appropriate that to read a poem with such a title one must click (knock) and wait for the site (door) to open. *S* Don't give me that innocent act... you planned it that way!!! LOL

The poem is excellent... enhanced by a powerful presentation. I don't know the answers... but I like the asking!

Oh I am so glad you didnt change the format, it added so much to an already powerful poem. I do love your words. Very strong and emotional and oh those walls. Yes those walls we build. Love this. floria

They got you!  I thought it was neat as once you got inside I saw a staircase going up.  Great ideas here, well done.

Zinsser, thank you and yep, wall have that safe feeling don’t they?

suthern…lol, now….that is a really great idea…the knocking to open the poem thingy…and if I were the conniving type I would take credit for it……..lolol…but nope…it was out of frustration with my html skills that I did it like that….thank you lady

strbbux, thank you so much…and yes I agree, I rarely write with form, but this one just came out like that, it is not the same poem without the form

noah, thank you so much, you are a sweet and compassionate soul

marge….lol, you guys keep that up and you will have me thinking I did plan it that way thank you lady
