The Closed Door

     I followed the path farther than I had before.  Determined to discover where it led, I traveled deeper into the underbrush and the thicket of trees as the light grew dim.  Finally I emerged into a clearing where I discovered a stone wall. 

       At it’s center was a large door.  It taunted me and made me even more curious about what lay on the other side.  What would I find beyond the mysterious door?  Fame? Fortune? Danger? Another road that would lead me further on?  Like life, the closed door held the promise and mystery of the tomorrows before me.

  8. Okay.. I'm really going to date myself here but as soon as I saw the title of your post I immediately thought of "Open the door for your mystery date!" Does anybody besides me remember that game??? I feel like the crypt keeper! - Great writing Kathy. Pretty intriguing..

  13. It's always fun to imagine what's behind closed doors. I guess you have to find a window to crawl through to find out!
