Paths To Ponder

This location in the deep woods Amongst the mist With the moss filled aroma in the air This place is where She misplaced him so long ago Now peace lingers As she passes the trail where she buried him A secret she keeps, While endlessly smirking (Note this is not about my husband!)

You know, this started off as a sad memory, but you sure came up with a Hitchcock-like twist at the end. (And I'm glad it's not about your husband!) Great write! Love, Carolyn
