Thank you. I'm glad you like it.
Comment from Pantygynt
This reminds me of the many children who have imaginary playmates that they 'see'. These are very real to those who have them. I never did but I have known several people who did.
Were these 'ghosts' or simply figments of the child's imagination I wonder.
The subject fits the genre of free verse well as is demonstrated in this piece.

My oldest son had an imagery friend until his brother came along. I watch my cats playing with either a ghost or an imaginary friend. Thank you for the compliment.
Comment from Gloria ....
What makes this a most interesting prompt is that it's a letter from a ghost. Uh oh ... lol.
This ghost seems to be a guardian angel as your free verse so well elucidates.
Beautiful poem and where do you come up with all these wonderful prompts, and don't ever stop. :)

Those very words touched me sentimentally and I was moved that verse of spirituality. Deep and profound. Gentle and with strength. Thank you for sharing that wonderful verse.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Your ghost sounds so sad, Yvonne. You did a great job with the Free Verse Club prompt. Your lines read well with great imagery. I like the us of w, f, t, & m alliteration and the cross rhyme of years/tears. I like how the ghost is telling you to be assured it is friendly when/if it knocks' on your door. Your words paint their own picture so none is needed. I like the gray background--kind of mysterious and the white font--very ghost-like. I could imagine the ghost flying around and letting you know it's there and/or leaving you a note. Yes, your ghost is linked forever to you--in this case a good thing. You have made it happy after years of sadness.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from lyenochka
Thanks for challenging us to keep practicing free verse and I feel sad for the ghost who longs to have a family like the writer he feels linked to in a deep way. Perhaps the ghost feels some catharsis inspiring the writer.
