Hanging Rock
Three Private school girls went missing at Hanging Rock
In 1900
An eerie tragic event
Enjoying a planned picnic
No one knew what was about to impend
Lunch finished, four girls and teacher
Decided to explore
What happened was a whole lot more
Miranda, Edith, Irma and Ms Mc Craw
Cannot describe what they saw.
In an unexplained event,
All vanished into the rock
Except Edith,
Edith returns to the group in complete shock
Hysterical and can’t detail what happened
But she knew it wasn’t imagined
The surrounding town descends into chaos
The searchers will not give up
For their search for the lost.
Irma found unconscious but unharmed
Strang things continued
It became a real issue
Withdrawn students, staff quitting unexpectedly
All at the picnic had behaviour changes
It was progressively
School girl commits suicide
Headmistress jumps of Hanging Rock
Killing herself
What did they see, whatever it was
They kept it to themselves
Some believe Paranormal Activity occurred
when the 1975 film premiered
clocks stopped at 12 pm, watches stopped at 6 pm,
coincidental or cohered
Rabbit Hunters find frilled Calico at the rock, believed
To be Ms McCraw’s
With no other evidence
They all withdraw
None of the missing women wherever found
Hey search began from the ground
Still till this day, there is an eerie feeling up the top
The mystery of wonder
Keeps us to ponder
Theories are they followed a lizard into a crack in the rock
(a hole in space), how could this be when there is
No trace
It’s acknowledged the crack in the rock is a time warp
And they are in another dimension
These myths leave you
With apprehension
Another is there was a large red cloud above the rock
They went up into it, vanished
So many different articles
Published
They will never be found, this case will never be resolved
What is the truth
We will never know
