RED DOOR
Once upon twilight dreary, sat a child all sad and teary./ On the sandy shore, father dead in war/ 
 Alone did sit the child there/ 
 His dreams from hand that implore/ 
 Dream that away was tore/ 
 Sat the child Lalor//
 How sat the child ten feet under on that bleak November/
 For kindness kindle not a care in store/The child that knew no morrow, could only lose to his own sorrow/
 He watched the others play, an orphan evermore/
 Not a soul to look his way, with out an open door/ Sat the child Lalor//
 The boy sat eternally uncertain, he sat there closed as a theater curtain/ Sat there evermore;
 No thought shall cross this childs mind, for behind it which he hides/
 Slowly sinking into the oceans floor,
 Hoping hoping Forevermore/ 
 Sat the child Lalor //
 He pulled himself up stronger, stood his ground longer /
 
 With great strides he left behind the shore;/
 No he didnt travel all much more
 For he found an open door,/
 And a lost pup, he found his place to snore; /
 Stood the boy Lalor. /
 
   
 
 Now the boy is grown, with a life of his own/
 He married and had a child, Calor/
 With a business, that continues to flourish /A house a upon the hill is sat, with a bright red door/
 Generation pass though that bright red door/
 Forever sleeps the man Lalor. /
