the door with no lock is a metaphor in one of teachings in the new
testament...it stands for the soul that needs no lock...philisophically it
stands for the free-will...from my point of view a door it's the empediment
between 2 mediums...exterior and interior...a lock at the door would block
the communication between the mediums...it's an optimistic poem about
communication in a sympatic and parasympatic way...one has to deal both
with himself and with others, too...this relates this poem with the road
not taken too..i think that frost chose to deal with himself...it is
usually the most difficult way...nosce te ipsum...good luck to all the
poetry readers!

This poem is really nice, It is a bit hard to interpret. Some say death is
at the door, some say his memories came back to haunt him... He climbs out
the window and then says to come in. He wanted to see what it was but
did'nt really want "it", or whatever it was to see him... In the end the
knocking continues, the last stanza is the hardest to understand. "I
emptied my cage" In the end it is a mystery what was behind the door.
Really great poem. I also agree with Elle, great poem great twist to it. No
wonder Robert Frost made it!

This is a great poem, the Lockless Door is the door to your heart. After
waiting many years, finally a knock came. I love it when the character
puts "his" hands up, as in prayer, and you think that he may be thenking
God for the knock, but than it comes again and he decends out th window,
what a twist! It gives me a smile every time I read it. Enjoy!
