It's Still Life

24 July: A Thursday Door

red front door, climbing rose, red polka dot boots, house is a blue colour
old wooden service doors at the rear of a fancy hotel in Tours France.
Old Service Doors of a Hotel in Tours France

The old service doors sigh
With stories etched in their grain
Day’s bustle faded
Stillness wears yesterday’s rain

Bushboy (Brian Dodd) shares photos of doors, but not just any doors. Spectacular doors from his journeys. Dan’s Thursday Doors opened the door on this. I love doors of all sorts. I’ve trawled through my photos and found a few to share.

    Beautiful poem. Those doors have certainly seen their share of hard work. You captured that well in the photo and your words.

      Thank you, Dan! I’m off on holiday in a few days — and I’m come back with more door photos!
