[Poem]
Three keys quite different from each other
Varied in size, shape, and hue
One of gold, second of silver, third of copper
Longing to perform their duty
A plum colored door awaits for a purpose
Its hinges desperate for friction
But what will each key reveal
For that is the question
The gilded key is heavy in hand
Embellished in intricate designs
Turned to the left to expose a wintry land
Piercing frigid air
Key of slate, lightweight and smooth
Opens to darkness, black as night
An all consuming void, impending doom
It seeks out to devour the light
The copper key is certain of its cause
As it pivots to the right
It opens with confidence, not giving pause
Warmth radiates from within
As if everything good has been contained
Nothing seen or felt like it before
Key of lesser metal, worth just as much
If not more
