Door of Perception

 

worn  stairs
torn  tapestry
ascending  step  by  step
mystical  room  fortune  teller
good luck

white  owl
 seeking   knowledge 
sky-way  to  the cosmos
 opening  doors of perception
 soaring

    This is a new take. I love the idea of seeing a fortune teller by taking these well-worn stairs.

    A path that many has followed and few ever reach, have to get there and soar though. Perception is sure key, nice word choice lol

    Though the stairs look scary but the future onto which they lead looks happy!

    A door to perception. Yes, we all try to open it, and some find its treasures inside, if we want to.

    A fortune teller can well open up opportunities involving the heavens. Many must have taken the same route given the exhausted carpets. Wonderful write Truedessa!
