Just a Door



Opportunity is not 

a door flung wide open
with a beacon that beckons
an alert to all passersby.

Opportunity is 
just a door; 
hinges may be rusty or well-oiled
door knob may be shiny new or tarnished old

Opportunity is a chance ~
a chance to discover something new
to remake something grown old
but only if the opportunity is taken.

“A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.”
~ Francis Bacon,  The Essays
