ancient house--

we bow our way

through narrow doors

divorce talk

with a slam of the door

the sentence ends

night chill--

the barn door slides

off its tracks

autumn night

sound of rainfall

through the open door

autumn funeral ~

yesterday's confetti clings

to the church door

sheila windsor 

abandoned cabin --             

no one left to hear

the creaking door

Nancy Smith 

slippery doorsteps

there you are -

upside down

Edith Muta 

louvered door:

a new day dances

on rays of dust

summer breeze

through the patio door

pink bouganvillea

Darrell Byrd 

rusted door

covered in vines

a lost key

Carol Sircoulomb 

Opening to one while

closing to another-

a door

James B-B 

night thunder

every door creak

wakes the baby

gary steinberg 

a peephole

in the door

one eye blinks

Carol Raisfeld 

screen door

saliva traces of

her kisses

Angèle Lux 

Easter morning -

in front of church door

a squat tramp dog

Jasminka Nadaskic Diordievic

Autumn wind -

the open door

slowly closes

Penelope Davis Greenwell 

autumn wind -

opening and closing

the basement door

Rob Scott 

end of summer

the screen door bangs

for the last time

Jaloe 

midnight knock on door

her hand pensively reaches

to unlock the knob

dragonfly 

half eaten cicada

left by the front door-

red cat preening

Dove 

woodpile--

opening the outhouse door

dad's worn out jacket

oga 

the incense tip

smolders in the dark

locked doors

DeVar 

snow flurry

the worn door sill

smoother now

angelee

door opens,

kick in the butt -

I am flying!!!

Ghost Cat

autumn --

chill air comes through the door

with the dog

jennie townsend 

sunlight stabs

through the splintered door -

red, red leaves

Laurene

periwinkles

growing by the door

covered with dew

Patricia A. Laurent 

up on my door

the sun puts its plaque

end of June

windy night

out of nowhere footsteps

at the back door

Gene Williamson 

a screen door slams

a gecko leaves behind

its twitching tail

Eileen Blas Schaefer 

invasion force

screen door covered with houseflies

autumn morning sun

Edward 

BLT sandwich

mail plops through

the front door

SUE

The woman dying.

The fall wind flaps the screen door

open and shut, open ...

Horst Ludwig 

Permission given

to open the door

for recess.

Ellen Dodds 

door to doorstop

bump, bump

breeze passing through

~Sil 

sudden breeze

through the supermarket door...

green chrysanthemums

joyce maxner 

closed front door

a boy scout sorts keys

on the doorsteps
