Spirit Level

Some things in life are a mystery That can’t be fully explained Ghosts and Ghouls are just two of them Because ‘everything’ has to be named Have you ever tried to reason! Why it’s only scary at night? When the cloak of darkness has descended And imaginations, easily take flight It’s the fear of the unknown that haunts us In life: what’s real, is key Believing in ghostly apparitions Is frightening to those who don’t see So, what about our spirit? Does it leave us when we die? Is it something that lasts forever? Maybe this is what’s catching our eye So the next time your fears are awoken By shadows and sounds in the night Remember! It’s not only you being startled A spirit could be catching a fright!! Philip Royle copyright ©
