THE HAUNTED MILL ~ VISUAL POEM

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

WE ALWAYS FIND WINDMILLS SPOOKY @ NIGHT ! 

 

I was always intrigued by the WINDMILL

That stood on the opposite side of the Lake

Three stories high ~ with its Sails in the Sky 

I wondered what sort of Entrance Id make !

 

I picked up the courage ~ acquired a Boat

To sail to the spooky opposite shore

I had a slight feeling of fear in my Throat

Could I enter the MILL ~ was I sure ?

 

It was dark when I entered ~ although the MOON

Shone bright ~ a door creaked and gave me a fright !

T'was then that I saw IT ~ IT made me swoon 

GHOST of the MILLER ~ silhouetted in MOON !!!

 

I shrank back in Horror ~ started to run

When the GHOST grabbed me ~ said "Its OK SON !"

Im not a GHOST with a mystical POWER

Im just an Old Miller ~ covered in FLOUR !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments please ~ BRIAN & ANGELA

 

A VISUAL POEM is a Poem inspired by a Picture !

We like to write our Poems and THEN add Picture

and if appropriate a Video !  In this case ANGELA 

saw the Picture in PINTEREST and sent it to me

with an outline for the Poem. We completed the

Poem together and I posted it this Morning. It is

a classical example of a VISUAL POEM ~ 🧡🧡🧡🧡

        Love this Brian so many things hit me being young and feeling afraid of something and it turning out ti be nothing at all
        The scariest thing is our imagination
        Well done

        • BRIAN & ANGELA

          THANKS ANDREW ~ our imaginations do play tricks on us. I still think MILLERS do look like GHOSTS especially in the MOONLIGHT. They start milling very early in the Morning ! Yours BRIAN

            Good fun right, those old millars can be frightening at times.

            • BRIAN & ANGELA

              That is true UNCLE ANDY ~ Ive visited a few Flour Mills ended up as a GHOST myself ~ and MILLERS are always a force to be reckoned with. Angela and I love poems conceived from a PICTURE ~ Blessings & Joy ~ To YOU & JOYCE ~ BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
