The key to the lock
That opens the door
Is hidden from the eye
Only those
With the right combination
Of qualities need apply
Even they will be tested first
Their colors against the sky
If they fly free
Their destiny
Will move them toward the door
The door will not be opened
Despite the gifts they bear
All the wisdom they proclaim
The twisting of their rhymes
Can not turn its latch
That only occurs with time
Once the games and pleas
Have long since ceased
Surrendered to the Light
The Light will reveal
The key
That turns the lock
That opens the door
To the kingdom
That lies within the heart
Its wonders to explore
