Constance La France Poet Monorhyme

Notes About The Poem

It's Just a Game Or Is It

It was Halloween night,

and me and my friends were playing Ouija by candlelight;

soon, every creak in the house gave me a fright,

the whole evening my growing fear I had to fight.

We said our goodbyes at midnight,

and I blew out the candles and walked up two flights;

in my bedroom, I looked in the mirror, gosh I was pale white,

I got in bed-   but left the lamps on bright.

Oh yes, I was freaked out not a little but quite,

in time, I fell asleep . . .  never felt the vampire bite.

Russell Sivey October 13, 2017 at 7:56 AM Ah yes, the vampire's bite, those are quite the dangerous ones, would she drink any of the vampires blood and become one herself? Those are frightful things those Ouija Boards are, I don't really believe that they work except through the ones holding it, though I have seen them move without anyone touching it...so I'm a little afraid of them! Great write about that, What a fabulous poem this morning, Awesome Work!! Constance La France October 16, 2020 at 8:55 AM Russell, thanks for the great comment and the compliment _Constance
