Wallace

Ghost Walk.

Night sky dark.

I hear a lone dog bark.

Walking along a rutted country lane.

With the aid of a strong sturdy cane.

No one around but me.

Stars in the dark sky I see.

They sparkle like a pot of gold.

A priceless sight that can not be sold.

I keep walking.

To myself I start talking.

Not in a mad way.

Words of wisdom to myself I say.

Time, quarter past midnight.

At the end of the lane I see my home light.

Rain starts to fall.

I reach the secure red bricks of my homely wall.

I enter and retire to bed.

I am a ghost who doesn\'t realise he\'s dead.
