LOOKING ASKANCE or “Riddle Me This”
Looking askance,
and simply not sure,
though at the same time
could quite care less,
why we’re sitting here
and looking at her,
as dressed in black
she’s so much at home,
with her treasures,
her pets,
who fit right in
with her world
and her mystery,
as likewise dressed
in matching black
and waiting for us
to say the next word,
to ask her the question,
whatever it is.
And the answer she gives
may solve the riddle
of why she and they
are there quite like that,
this young woman,
as feline-like as
her feline reclining,
and her trusted
canine still
standing at
attention.
When this mysterious maiden
gives us the answer
to whatever is our question,
the riddle might be solved
or we’ll simply
turn around
and go
in the opposite direction.

Thanks so much for your visits and comments
on this piece and the previous ones posted.
as they are such an encouragement
to my always somewhat reticent muse
who found this image quite the challenge.
