Rent A Ghost Poem by Annette Aitken
Rent A Ghost
Rent a Ghost
Round up
Round up
to rattle and ghoul
a ghost of Christmas past been found
Here he is
available to rent
Bar mitzvah, parties,
special events
He walks through windows
doors of steel
head underarm
for spook appeal
His cobwebbed smile
cockroach eyes
slimy hands
that drip with pride
Gangly legs
all green and smelly
candle wax trace's
from where he's stepped in
A voice so low
he'd crack a mirror
just enough
to make you quiver
So choose it wise
your, trick or treat
the curse of change
maybe repeat.......ed....
Think I'd hide behind the couch and send Mr P to sort him out! Great Halloween story. Brilliant descriptions. Those Gangly green legs.. help!
Really good poem just perfect for a spooky Halloween. Doors aren't a problem for ghost's because they always carry skeleton keys.
Marvellous expression. A beautiful poem shared. Thanks for sharing.
