Why Doors. Well, while reading Jack Gilbert’s poem “Burning (Andante Non Troppo)”:
“…The grand Italian churches are
covered with detail which is visible at the pace
people walk by. The great modern buildings are
blank because there is no time to see from the car.
A thousand years ago when they built the gardens
of Kyoto, the stones were set in the streams askew.
Whoever went quickly would fall in. When we slow,
the garden can choose what we notice…”
Often, New York feels like a city whose character flourishes from the people that live there rather than the houses they live in. Often, Jaffa feels like a city whose character flourishes from the houses people live in rather than the people themselves.

I love the pics of the doors. Each door is really unique and the colors are amazing. Makes my front door look very dull!

This last picture with the red wrought iron doors should be entitled,
The Sweetheart Doors-lovely.
