Ghosts

         Gloomy ghosts seek the dark
         Ghastly humid death mist
         Grandma doesn't like cold feet
         grandpa, a nasty cough
         Grumpy ghosts cause trouble
         Glimpse emerges, blood moon
         Grace to my ancestry

Daniel Henry Rodgers Date: 9/24/2025 1:36:00 PM Dear Anne-Lise, It's so atmospheric and chilling. The way you moved from those spooky images to the more personal details about grandma's cold feet and grandpa's cough was really powerful. It makes the piece feel both creepy and deeply human at the same time. Blessings, Anne-Lise, Daniel Login to Reply
