Ghost

i saw a ghost against my wall,
it made my skin just crawl crawl crawl,
it made me shiver to the bone,
because i knew i was not alone,
i tried to sent it to the light,
but man, did it give me a hell of a fright,
i heard it holler and i heard it roar,
then i heard it slam the door,
i had to pray, to the lord above,
i had to ask for forgiveness and love,
god came and sent this demon away,
and that is how it has always stayed

Ken Awesome! You were certainly right trying to send this lost soul to the Agape light. For he was angry and lost from the love of his true self. Awesome, wisdom shown in the excellent content of this gem. Thanks for entering it in support of my contest. Congratulations, Agape, Moses
