Week 50 The Trolaan
Neighbor Gate

Neighbors, you'd think by the definition,
neatly researched, documented, a lynchpin,
no one would contradict its intention.
Next door, new people moved in.

Each day I anticipated an exchange,
excited to encounter, meet and greet,
expecting to talk, nothing strange,
encouraged by past experiences, sweet.

A neighbor gate links our lands
allowing easy access to come and go
though today, a padlock on gate stands
abating any use of the portal's flow.

No sighting of people, no clue,
no note of explanation why,
no guesses, wondering who.
Neighbors unknown, no passers bye.
~~Judi Van Gorder
