Ghost of a Chance

A tombstone cleaning workshop—
don’t bother the ghost…it’s sold out!
You can no longer finger this rest stop.
How about this Halloween turnout!

Will it be a Poppins extravaganza,
sweeping and polishing to Step in Time?
It’s a grave matter to the living, who plans a
cleaning party— the chance of a lifetime.

Oh I sure hope it is "Will it be a Poppins extravaganza, sweeping and polishing to Step in Time?" One of my favorite things!

The cemeteries in the UK display a remarkable difference; graves hundreds of years old are easily read in well-maintained cemeteries whereas others are lichen hosts. Good on you!
