The door is finally open,

March 10
The door is finally open,
The gates have been unbarred.
It's up to us to step through them,
Although the way be hard.
We've studied for this ancient test
All night and through the dawn.
We think we've got the answers down,
But worry if we're wrong.
We've suffered long for our mistakes.
We paid a frightful price.
We know that we had earned it,
And now we've borne it twice.
Once in coming, once in going,
We've finally made amends.
The tale is done, the song unsung
We go now to different ends.
We fight so hard against the urge
To lock the door behind us.
But there are many still asleep,
And we pray for them to find us.

The Hidden Mercy

The wall creeps back in the night, She loved the wilderness. She lived the wilderness. The actions of the many have guided us. ...
