We hide behind
the shadow mask face
of our lives.
Watching, waiting, anticipating
longing for what
we no naught.

Snow falls two days before
Spring Equinox
Winter struggles to keep
its hold.
You'll be 19 then
who once was new
pink downey heade
bundle of baby bliss
labors forgotten.

Life's rewards
taken to heart
grown woman in
the eyes of the world
still child, viewed
behind my mask
love unconditional.
