the key

i was surprised to see

a key inside the book

carefully placed inside the binding 

were i suppose many people wouldn’t look

and i set it aside and over a few days i read the work

and next to the last page, i found a simple note

time had almost erased it for it was written in pencil

rather than ink

it said this text may inspire you to seek out the King of Kings

but the key you hold in your hand must be placed inside the lock 

of your heart

your must open it so that The Father can come in

for He will not lodge in a space unless He is welcomed in

you have the key

signed………..are you willing
