Intrigued

Surveying the empty room's avenues
Opened possibilities await guest
Built in bookshelf seems to openly intrigue
Here will place books and toys of children blessed 

Adequate space within the quiet walls
But there's an eerieness that now lingers
It could be no lights or candles that palls
But those could cast shadows and scary fingers

Maybe the cloudy sky with sun suppressed
Effects the eerie pallor of the room
Need to come once more with candle requested
And see if cobbwebs swept away with broom 

A house that could become a home ready
Which has the scent of broomstick gourd heady

"It could be no lights or candles that palls But those could cast shadows and scary fingers. I particularly liked those two lines. The poem as whole is superb.
