THE BROKEN DOOR, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: This is the place! I know
Last Line: Time's step is slow to follow.
Subject(s): Wellesley College


THIS is the place! I know
The broken door, the ragged bed of bloom
Where poppies grow,
Row after row,

This is the place.
A year ago her footprint
Marked the garden path
With tender hollow.

But now?
Time's step is slow to follow.
