04-15-2011 let the gate swing open

Lyndon B. Johnson Visitor Center -Historic Living Site, Stonewall, Texas

Gates & Doors
Let the gate swing open
However poor the yard,
Lest weary people visit you
And find their passage barred.

Unlock the door this evening
And let your gate swing wide,
Let all who ask for shelter
Come speedily inside.

What if your yard be narrow?
What if your house be small?
There is a Guest is coming
Will glorify it all.
~Joyce Kilmer
