I Saw

i saw with my own eyes a hank in a space suit a hank is a ghost that if seen may scare you it wandered from the cemetary in a space man walk i watched as i listen to my cousin talk look lil johnny look lil johnny look lil johnny look loud whispers my attention took i gawked listened and i shook looking without horror and wondering where it will go we kept same position not thinking of missing the show across the front yard the thing went while we looked for the head and the axe antisipating that it would turn and head our way but staying at it's angle it soon went away i saw this ghost with my own eyes even knowing ghost stories it was still a surprise

Interesting write that you have presented here...Kinda unbelievable that you got to see a real live ghost...Was you afraid? ....I would be afraid of a hant...Keep the creative pen flowing...Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work...Sara

Are you leading up to the finding of your relative's grave that you mentioned to me, John? This is a great poem -- nice way to build suspence. Hope you are doing well, my friend. You've been on my mind. Love, Carolyn
