hopefulThe Universe comes knocking
on the front door. Bare-knuckled,
eschewing doorbell or knocker.
It carries a large carpetbag
full of wonders and possibilities.
There may be a miracle in there,
even two – it's hard to tell,
and sometimes a matter of perspective.
Will you answer? Or will you ignore
the unexpected visitor until it goes?
Knock.
Knock.
. . .
This year, I think I'll answer. And you?
