"The Little Red Haired Girl"

“The Little Red Haired Girl”

By Cody Williams

 

I heard her from the other side of the door

Her laughter and joy

It was the sound of the little red haired girl

 

I arose from my bed

And bumped my head

I slipped on my house shoes and walked to the door

 

I placed my hand on the doorknob

And opened it

I stuck out my head

And there she stood

 

She smiled at me proudly

And bent down

She picked up her big red ball

And skipped down the hall

 

She stopped

She turned

She smiled

And then she disappeared into the darkness

It seems fairly obvious to me that the little red haired girl was a ghost.

Either that, or you have wandered too close to the Peanuts Dimension...
If that's the case, Charlie Brown and Linus will be along shortly...don't let them frighten you...especially Linus, with his eerie little piano...

Thanks for reading Angel!

I like it, I am intrigued by the red headed girl. Why don't you write a story about where she went.

[Cody Williams]

Thanks for reading! This is a poem that I actually wrote a year ago an it is a springboard for an upcoming story. The story will dive a little deeper into her. It explains who she is, what she wants to tell him, and what happened to her. Thanks again for reading!

You might do well to look at this again my friend, it is not perfect, but COULD be...give it another whirl

[Cody Williams]

Thanks for reading Doc! This is really just a springboard for an upcoming short story I have written! Thanks again!

Ok Cody, I have often taken poems on to become stories, You can get some great ideas in such a short space with a poem, and then expand it into prose. But you know that, Happy Christmas

[Cody Williams]

Merry Christmas to you too Doc!

A interesting tale. I like the use of the red hair girl. Fear and myth is always a good topic to write upon. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.
