Opens the Door

-------Opens the Door-------

In the moment just before sleep
the mind stops working
and becomes a doorway
between heaven and earth.

"Leave your things out there,"
a lovely voice calls.
"Come in.
Come in and rest."

What is there on the other side
is not for knowing.
What dreams emerge
is for the stars to decide.

Forgiveness 
like this
opens the door 
to communion,

and somewhere, 
in this Great Forest,
a small, green leaf 
trustingly unfolds.
