A haunted house outside
Witches on guard for strangers
Projections of fire ‘nd skeletons hung high
To look like the place where ghosts reside.
Let it be termed by children ‘A Ghost House’
Be it dark and lonely outside
Serving as castle for the ghost king himself
Dressed in dark, evil and purple dress.
But let it be a paradise inside
Songbirds and angels singing high
Filled with the aroma of rose and sweets
To be the heaven I wish it to be.
Bonsai trees bearing silver, ruby and gold
Stuffed in cherry blossoms painted with snow
Be it a paradise of unrivalled beauty
Fit to house the king of Gods.
This is the house how I want it to be
A house which scares thieves away
But matches all my comforts just the same
This is my house, where I want to be!

Dear Sahana – love the way you think. A dream house so uniquely described keeping safety as the premise yet not compromising on all the beautiful desires ! Lovely choice of words as always…
Keep rocking! All the best!

Dear Sahana, excellent work, once again!!! Exterior potrayal was scary, but the interior manifestation was appealing!!! The choice of words made it complete and clear reflection of the dream house. Best wishes!!

Amazing ! It captures high philosphy. ‘To be the heaven I wish it to be’ and ‘A house which scares thieves away’ and ‘Fit to house the king of Gods’ and ‘Serving as castle for the ghost king himself’ are full of beautiful combinations! Another Austen and Mahadevi Varma in the making! Keep it up
