it opens but once
I’m told
opportunity knocks – then
leaves one cold
you have what it takes
to open that door
stepping through
is a metaphor
grab hold
be bold
it’s yours
go!

Checking in from Texas – using the hotel’s computer – checking out the Trifecta challenge for the week.
These are my 33 words – where are yours?
‘Grab hold, be bold’ – I like the sounds of that. You’re right though- opportunity isn’t a patient one and it waits for nobody!
It’s Barbara! In Texas! Thanks for linking up this week. It sounds like it took some effort. Great advice here, Barbara. Try to come back and vote at the end, if you can.
“Stepping through is a metaphor” — that’s brilliant Barbara! Love this piece. I hope you’re having a good time in Texas!
Oh those slippery doors (:
Extra credit, done from the road! Nice.
Words to live by Barbara!
very good. Opportunity is elusive, sometimes it happens and you don’t even know it.
Very nice – made me smile.
Great advice, if only we would take it!
Yes indeed — just a single oppurtunity
Being bold usually gets me into trouble, but at least I have a good time!
I hope you are having fun in Texas. I see that you brought some cold weather with you…
Lovely words & so true:-)
I love the sentiment in this and it was beautifully written LM x
