I Know What I Saw.....3 Faces Within A Tree?

Rating: 4.0


Outside of my window
there stands a big tree
I woke up one morning
and saw small faces-there were 3

One looked like a mask
it had a smile that was kind
another, like a side profile
I could see the shape of its nose
it seemed like it had
its own mind

The 3rd was kinda scary
as if it had one eye
in the middle of its face-it kinda smiled
or was it more so like
a creepish clown, instead of an eye
it was a nose?

I saw this all on a friday
the 12th of March to be exact
I told myself that later that night
I'd look for those faces in the tree
And I did.....

I found one, the one that looked like a mask
the other two I could not see
For it had been rainy and windy
and it was cloudy that night
And so I ended up falling asleep

Before I did so
I told myself that I'd look
for them the next morning
And I did.....

Again, I found the one that looked
like a mask
But this time it wasnt smiling
it looked kind of sad
a little scared in a way
the other two faces
were nowhere to be seen

I lay in my bed wondering
what had happened and where they had went
Some may say I've lost my mind
but I know what I saw
so I told myself, later that night
I'd look again.....
And I did.....

I came to see the face like a mask
and this time it looked angry
the way it stared back at me
kinda scary-in an evil way?

I saw another face-kinda like an old lady
it sat in the place of the second face

Could the mask had been angry
because she was there?

It was still rainy and windy
I layed there and thought
and eventually fell asleep
