The light bulbs flicker,
the house feels chilly
and I tell myself
not to be silly.
I know it is cowardly
but I pale at the sight
of an alien creature,
a woman in white.
She is, you might guess,
my resident ghost
though I am reluctant
to play the host.
I see that she’s wearing
a diaphanous dress
and the poor wretch
seems in distress.
Perhaps I should call
on the vicar of Bray
to exorcise her
and send her away.
I remember the time
when she was alive
but now her body
is under the drive.
