As one door closes, yet another one opens

Thank goodness! - for if not, you'd be moping

Constantly pining for love found and now lost

Which plagued heart and mind, when tossed



But no matter what life's evolution brings

Sooner or later, loud bells will again ring

Signalling a connection made to cement

Your feet to the floor, amidst your torment



And then you go on to the next adventure

Finding that magic, often without censure

Arriving at yet the center of another target

To provide one more round of pleasure, set ...



- Tristram
