Door

Doors

An open door says, “Come in.”
A shut door says, “Who are you?”
Shadows and ghosts go through shut doors.
If a door is shut and you want it shut,
     why open it?
If a door is open and you want it open,
     why shut it?
Doors forget but only doors know what it is
     doors forget.


Our door is always open to our friends, we hopes you will come inside and sit awhile with us. We likes to look out the door at the beautiful world we has to play in. ~Fenris & Tuiren reporting for ATCAD

It's too cold for an open door in the winter, where we live! :-)

Maybe we'll teleport over and enjoy your open door!

I'm not allowed to look out the door, apparently. It's made of wood and only leads to the hallway of our apartment, anyway. I have my own window, though. Don't tell Mom. She thinks it's hers.

Love and licks,

We only get an open door when it is a hot sunny day so we don't see too many at this time of year!

We hate it when doors are closed. We do not allow our pawrents to close doors inside the house. Hopefully it will get warm enough that we can open the front door and look out. Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S)

We like open doors the best.
But Glogirly says we pay WAY more attention to the closed ones.
