The Third Knock Poem by S Holland

The Third Knock



You knocked on the door of my heart.
I did not answer,
Because I thought I had to search
For love.
You knocked again.
I cracked the door of my heart,
Because you were
So insistent.
You knocked a third time,
And my heart's door swung wide,
Because love had found me,
And I chose
To answer.

This is beauty...True love when it comes, is hard to contain, and sometimes persistence is the key to win a woman's heart. I have read this poem many times and it still makes me smile. It reminds me of something sweet, somewhere. Truly a beautiful write.

It sounds as if the dawn is in the sky. And from the sea the salt is in the air....iip
