THE MYSTERY

Where are we going in such a hurry?
With our bags all packed.
Fleeing the scene of a crime?
Perhaps a lover’s dispute?
The carriage is here.
Police sirens wail in the distance.
The story is getting better
as I watch from
my bedroom window.

KEEP YOUR EYES CLOSED

splendiferoushoney: by Martin at hipydeus


The past calls to you.
A past filled with balls and dancing.
Balls held at castles.
Dancing in the moonlight.
Close your eyes.
A carriage awaits you
to carry you to the ball.
A castle lit up by candles.
Footmen escort you.
Your name is trumpeted .
You glide down the staircase
in your new ball gown.
The music begins to play.
A handsome man walks over
with an extended hand.
He leads you onto the dance floor.
You dance and sway
to the beautiful music.
You close your eyes.
Yes it is a dream,
but keep your eyes closed
and dream on.

THE HAUNTED HOUSE

Haunting picture.
Should we continue on our
way to this dark house or
should turn around and run?
Is that a bat flying toward us?
The house-drawn carriage
is leaving at a quick pace.
I believe we should follow
its example and run to the hills!
