The Ghost and the Dream
We dreamed in a dream
That we were on the beach
The girls in costume
But the ghost was within reach
Iolanda and Danielle on the beach did they stand
Whilst Karen and Barbara, skipped with Carolyn in hand
Unknown to them, they were being watched from a far
A ghostly figure with a lengthy scar
The very next morning, at breakfast they were
Eating cheese covered noodles, in sight of the ghost with the scar
To the balcony they retired, sun bathing naked as be
As the ogling ghost, looked over the balcony to see
In strategic display, the straw hats were in place
So that the Souper girls would never be disgraced
But who is the ghost that all these girls see
This figure of white, at their balcony
Their day turns to night, into the town they head
For drinks and a meal, and then they retire to bed
But in the deep of the night, there is a cry and a shout
As all the girls wonder, what was that all about
In the morning they discovered, someone fell in their pool
A peeping tom was reported, someone was just playing the fool
The sad thing is, that they never discovered who
So when they all go to sleep, watch out for the BOO!
< Taken from Carolyn's dream, and for some of the ladies on the Soup
Iolanda, Danielle, Karen, Barbara and of course Carolyn >
