Welcome to Ghosts

 

and their expressions of relief--

finally someone believes

in them.

 

Their flights of fancy

irregular outlines

with sways and swagger

 

without howling

minus scary features.

 

More of a smile knowing

a mortal can be

filled with knowledge

 

and conviction.

Can't beat a friendly ghost dropping by. Best wishes, Richard.

Hi PT. Thanks for liking my friendly ghost. Writing gory stories is not my thing. After one scene of munching and crunching, my monster was retired many years ago. Stephen King, I am not.  RLP

I did see one though. Eric Wilson wrote a book about a ghost who inhabited an Inn in Lunenburg, NS. Esther and I rented the very room the ghost was in, at the Botswanna Inn.

Had a couple of interesting moments myself - both of them accompanied, thank goodness. At least, that way, you have a better case for not going mad.

You add confirmation to the possibilities of seeing a ghost in real life. It was only after we were signing out at the hotel that we were told we were in the ghost room which kick-started the story by Eric Wilson..
