The sky is erupting over the town.
Lightning is lighting up the sky.
The grey clouds are fighting for control.
Bold strikes of lightning are joining the fight.
Who will win?
Not the town, which will sustain much damage.
Not the townspeople who might get hurt and even lose homes.
Hopefully, the sky calms down before any damage is done.
Come and visit.

Come and visit.
Follow the line of trees.
Where do you think it leads?
Deep into a forest.
Down a dark road to a haunted house.
You will never know unless you start walking.
Ignore the moans and screams, it’s just the animals.
The howling are from a pack of wild dogs.
They like people very much.
It is safe to walk farther on.
Don’t look back, face forward, and walk.
Soon you’ll be reaching your destination.
Be prepared for anything.
Don’t be afraid.
Anything is a possibility.
THE DEAD GAME–PAGE A DAY–DAY 13

Later that day, Shana entered the bookstore with a very frightened look plastered across her white face. She was wearing a long flowing dress with bunches of chains hanging around her neck, and a huge collection of bangles on her arms. Linda heard the musical jingling of Shana’s jewelry even before she spotted her standing inside the front door of her shop.
She rushed over to greet Linda. “My cards have predicted horrendous things happening to us at the party Friday night. The Angel of Death appeared in my cards, which could only mean death for some or all of us.”
Linda didn’t remember ever seeing Shana so terrified before from a reading of her cards. She couldn’t decide if she should be concerned or not. Maybe this was why Shana had been acting strange before the barbeque. If this was a normal town, then she could just shrug it off, but this was Oasis, a very unusual town with a long history of strange episodes. Secret meetings and shadowy figures were commonplace.
“No one is here, so you don’t need to whisper. You have always stated that the cards were only for fun and not based on reality.”
Shana shook her head back and forth. “This town is full of secrets, and you don’t know which wall has ears. I’ve never told you this before, but my cards have never been wrong. That’s the reason why I’d opened my shop. I can see things most people cannot see or even imagine. But many people in town hate my shop and want to close me down…they’re afraid that I’ll unearth all their horrible secrets. But I’m staying until the bitter end….”
Feeling her heart skip a beat, she asked, “What end? What horrible secrets?”
Instead of acknowledge her questions, Shana quizzed her, “Who are you going with to the party?”
Linda knew that if Shana refused to answer a question, then nothing on this earth would be able to budge her. “Todd has offered to accompany me…just to watch over me.”
“Good! Definitely go with Todd! He’ll keep you safe. Remember! Stick with him the whole night and don’t leave his side for even one second!”
Linda was about to ask why but Shana was already out the door.

Winter can look pretty.
When the snow is white and clean.
Before footsteps fall.
Before cars trudge by.
Winter can definitely look beautiful.

I love doors.
The mystery of what lies behind them.
This is so far my favorite door.
Open and dare to see what’s inside.
