Spirited Show
Grandpa and Grandma ghosts went jogging every night,
breezing past public parks gave everyone a fright!
they sprinted through darkness far away from the lights,
scaring life out of locals, when they came in sight!
They were both two happy ghosts who bore no one spite,
stuck to old routine, although no need to lose weight!
grandpa and grandma ghosts ran in glowing white tights,
grandma was petite short, grandpa double her height!
town rumours spread, about how the two ghosts could bite!
movies made to terrify, said all was not right!
despite stories they continued to jog each night,
no one ever hurt, so rumours dismissed as trite!
if you are at local park, Christmas late at night,
you may catch a glimpse of them where there is no light,
please stop to wave a happy hi, without any fright,
good souls will always be good, surely will not bite!
