Locket on the wayside
Waiting to be undone
Locket locked in springtime
Was it done in fun?

Locket on the wayside
So very rooted in your latch
If ‘tis undone and opened
Will the opener be your catch?

Locket on the wayside
Pondered by all who pass your way
You hide your jewels in precious sight
Refusing the secrets you have stolen away.

Locket on the wayside
When will the vault be undone
And torrents flow unabashed
As myriads of many flow from just one. . .

Word. . . the key is with the searcher
And now I plainly see
How worlds can hide in little lockets
Of the words in poetry.

Very sweet poem.

I'm glad I took the time to open and peek inside.

Ahhh... this is nice.
