The Wooden Door

The Wooden Door 

Nestled in the woods, behind a beautiful meadow full of flowers, grows a hedgerow of prickly bushes. If you were taking an afternoon stroll through the woods, you would not pay much attention to these bushes.

I am sure the bright bluebells, sunny yellow buttercups, and purple lavender would catch your eye instead. But I’ll let you in on a little secret. If you look really hard at the bushes in the afternoon sun, something remarkable will appear!

Within the bushes, what may seem like the ray of sunlight is actually the magic of Mills Beary Village. For anyone that can look past this sunlight, stands an old heavy wooden door which will appear out of nowhere. An overgrown fragrant honeysuckle vine hides the door and the large black iron latch.

By now, you will probably ask yourself, “what is a large wooden door doing standing in the middle of the woods?” Look closely, you can see a faded brass sign nailed to the door with the words “Welcome to Mills Beary Village.”
