Questions

a death mask,

hidden in paint,

was the life a joyful one ?

or was it painful ?

would the mask let us know ?

questions, questions,

seems that is what life is,

questions.

Autumn

Autumn slowly floats into view,

with changing colors of the tree leaves,

and birds making their annual trek across the plains,

the heart warms to early cups of coffee,

and the cats on the porch begging to be fed,

school kids on the sidewalk,

excited for the new year,

Pumpkins and ghouls,

soon to be on their way.
