Green Aura

With a green aura That surrounds this house of old Sits a spooky feel Lamppost out front casts shadows Working eeriness about A lone light is lit By candle in upstairs room Visible on street Helps create the dim green glow That permeates all around

an silent green comes in between, when you do cross the doorstep, the lampost leans, creaks quiet obscene, should i just take one more step, or depart from terrors sheen, of Russells 'Green Aura scene,' i'll take not one more step, between... thanks Russell Sivey.... Don
