FIRST PLACE

Fall is absolutely our favorite season to explore cemeteries, and Mount  Hope is truly a gem! With vibrant autumn colors, rolling hills, and  stunning old Victorian gravestones, this cemetery resembles a scene

THIS AUTUMN CRYPT



                     Autumn leaves were falling
        in red, orange, gold and yellow,
          as I strolled a cemetery quiet.
            Until I heard whispers and moans.
          Hello, where are you? Can I be of help?
        I am in the crypt and cannot get out !
     Trees were shedding gold and rain was falling.
            Are you dead?  Yes, and my door out is locked !
