2/10/12      One of my favorite poems...


A Story Is a Doorway 

A story is a doorway 
That opens on a wider place. 
A story is a mirror 
To reflect the reader's face. 

A story is a question 
You hadn't thought to ponder; 
A story is a pathway, 
Inviting you to wander. 
A story is a window, 
A story is a key, 
A story is a lighthouse, 
Beaming out to sea.  
A story's a beginning, 
A story is an end, 
And in the story's middle, 
You just might find a friend. 
- Richard Peck
