I would have sworn there wasn’t a door there yesterday. ’Twas only a budding friendship with my neighbor Amelia, but it felt like I stood on the threshold of change, ready to shut out the past and open horizons.
I left small tokens of affection at her doorstep daily, hoping to unlock her smile.
Now she’s given me the key to her heart. Knock on wood!
She holds open the door, a vision in a white almost-there negligee…
I step inside…
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! My alarm!
“Goodbye Bert dear, don’t let the door hit you on the way out!”
