MY PLAYGROUND

This was for a contest about a cemetery and this was my take.

 

My Playground

 

               Where I love to play                     

These souls I never fear

A peaceful breathless low

pitch hush, whispers in my

ear.

In this hauntly beautiful realm

My mortality is lost, I get to

disappear no matter what the cost

Some days there is not a sound a

quiet breeze blows through my soul

It's here where chilling legends are

made, tingling ghostly stories are told

Walking barefoot through the grass

treading softly on resting places

I sit by hard cold slabs of stone while

I imagine faces

They speak to me, they tell me secrets

I always keep them near, there’s not one

lifeless beautiful soul I ever need to fear

Come play with me in my playground

Sigh; take a long deep filled breath

When I am in my favorite place with friends

I never feel the death.

I must say that this is by far my favorite work, by you. Graveyards have always held such a strange fascination for me, but it might be because I see ghost...
