A HOUSE WITHOUT DOORS
JYOTIRMAYA THAKUR
There is a huge house at the end of the road with very high walls and big trees skirting the boundary of ramparts of mountain rocks.The children of the village live to play at twilight close to the wall in the woods with a beautiful lake in the middle of the hills where mysterious birds made their nest. From the height they could see inside the house through many of its French Windows which opened in the evening and they could hear heavenly music with beautiful chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Only the children had dared to stay long enough to smell the fragrance emitting and seen people wearing formal dresses dancing in a big hall filled with a long ornate table with beautiful trays of delicacies and exotic food. The children imagination wondered how people assembled in this fortress without a door and Windows closed till sunset.They kept an eye everyday on the windows to open and get a glimpse of who the guests were and if they recognized anyone from the village so they could know the way to enter this house which resembled heaven.
