As part of Halloween and Captain Lifecruiser's Halloween Scary Story celebrations I'm posting a poem that my dear Dad wrote when I was a little girl....I still remember it...
The Ghost floated in the through the open door
And the Cat gave a scream as he leapt off the floor
His eyes bulged wide and his limbs grew taut
As he watched the ghost begin to haunt
The Ghost rocked to and fro at a leisurely pace
And he seemed very friendly by the smile on his face
But friendly or not we still cannot say
For we haven't seen the cat since that day !!!!!

Oh, that was a nice ghostly poem, purrfect for kids :-)
Thanks for spreading the word about the Halloween celebration!
It's needed to get more to come and have fun with us :-)
Too cute, Kim. It looks as if the cat took off like a bat out of hell.
Hee Hee Hee! That's how us yanks say it anyway.
Captain, my ghost stories are inappropriate for the season of fun otherwise I'd join in and spill my guts over this life experience. Maybe some other time. Other than that, I'm at a lost for spooky tales and folk lore. :(
hi Captain
it was fun remembering my Dad's poem.....and I remember having a good laugh when he made it up ....
it is cute isn't JB...
I bet your cats would do the same...
LOL...I know that expression....
my Mum uses it all the time.... :D
Cute poem, Kim, and a nice memory for you, of your Dad.
I see you're on ArtWanted, but I don't remember bumping into you there...?
Happy Halloweeen! (well, almost)
Awesome poem. Sounds like your dad was a lot of fun. Kind of reminds me of something I would write just not so well.

As a ghost hunter and cat lover, among a multitude of other wonders, I love that poem!
It's obvious art runs in your veins!!

I've never met a ghost hunter before :0
I'm actually a little wary of asking you whether you have caught any :0
