My response to Imaginary Garden with Real Toads Bits of Inspiration ~ Keyhole
A restricted view
Through a closed door keeps secrets
Until the key turns
And engages the tumblers
Unlocks possibilities

I am seriously thinking about self-publishing my poetry at the moment but am also struggling to get a children’s novel published. Too many balls and no juggling skills!

I can relate believe me. I have 2 sites on here I try to maintain, plus I have started a who done it and I have a photography business which isn’t busy like it was but I’m still busy enough. Good luck with your children’s book.

I think you are right.. don’t we always see them as both closed and open at the same time.. both dream and reality… a great metaphor.

Nice thoughts here, Kim. Keys can do magic with the locks.
Are you old enough to remember this early 70’s song? The refrain:
“I’ve got a brand new pair of roller skates
You’ve got a brand new key
I think that we should get together and
Try them on to see“
