I believe in ghosts and think this is a wonderful poem. I feel my father around me sometimes even though he died when I was 15. I really enjoyed this...thank you.

I feel presences, too. Glad to know I'm not the only one. Thanks for reviewing.

Hello, damommy,
Nice entry for the Ghosts event in the Fabulous Free Versers Club challenge. It's not creepy. It's more like a love poem. I like free verse poetic form.

It would be great to have our mothers' ghost present. Thanks so much, Valda. Hope all is well with you.

Wow -- now there's a really cool challenge! ;) Think I'd be a bit 'spooked' if I found your words, no matter how intriguing and well done for the challenge, sitting on my countertop when I got up one morning.... ;) Thanx for sharing, my lady! ;) Yvette

This is such a beautiful, vividly descriptive poem. The creative nature and the moving tone and wording of the poem are impressive. They are linked forever--friends in life . . . ??

Comment from Ulla
Hi Yvonne, as I read your great poem it suddenly dawned on me the writer had to be a ghost. And indeed at the end I realised that I was right. I really enjoyed reading it, and it is well written. A great entry for the challenge. All best, Ulla:)))

I like how your poem is written from the viewpoint of the ghost. The reader has feelings for this invisible being who watches life but cannot join in. Excellent free verse form and use of words that brings forth feelings.

Comment from karenina
I believe and have experienced supernatural communication. Sadly, not a one of my spirit friends has had the finesse and gift of poetry that you exhibit here! This is (excuse the pun) an absolutely haunting letter...
Reminds me of when I've stopped spontaneously to walk through a very old graveyard and felt "pulled" to a particular grave stone...those times I've felt (but not heard) the deceased calling out to me. Yes--just like this!--Karenina

Comment from judiverse
I would describe this as very "haunting." This ghost confesses it's lonesome, too, just like the loved one left behind. He wonders about the family he once had, and seems determined to make his presence felt. Your last two lines really capture the spirit's feeling. "There is no release for me. We are linked together forever. Beautifully worded. judi

You're welcome. The spirits don't like to be separated from their loved ones. judi
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That is so sad, Yvonne. I often wonder what would happen if the 'light' didn't open up for me. I guess I'd be just like that poor soul in your poem. It's something we'll all discover one way or another later. How many times have we heard that creak on the stairs? Hmm. You did a great job with this poem for the challenge. Well done! I'm going to practice my 'ghost writing' now! LOL :)) Sandra xxx
