The voice of the teacher,
is a note on the air,
spooling a story,
threads of alchemy.
Eyes meet with yours,
a flash of comprehension,
a breath of understanding held,
as the magic word is proffered,
one syllable, a phrase,
simple sounds charged with power.
The door is in front of you,
plain wood,
a simple catch.
No fanfare, no trumpets,
but the unspoken offer
borne within that breathed word.
The promise on your tongue,
a vocal key.
The choice unfurls
a peaceful landscape in your mind.
To say it,
to unlock the secret lock,
to step over the threshold
into the space waiting.
It is yours to take.
The story given,
the secret revealed,
the journey offered.
The way inward,
begins with a word,
spoken, or perhaps,
kept silent,
a truth recognized,
and finally,
stepped across.
