Old Ghosts

Old Ghosts found me here

But as I fade so do they

Now you they will shade.

I like this. short and precise

[Cherrie]

This is one of my favorite styles of poetry. It's simple always elegant and easy to follow

[RW Erskine]

sometimes you can say more with less

[Cherrie]

I agree, if the poem takes us on some kind of journey I don't mind a longer poem, but as a rule I like for them to be brief

[Rebecca]

small but concise. I can relate to this.

[Karen Redburn]

Short and yet for me the final line will haunt and make me wonder what it is all about. Great use of few words!

[Cherrie]

thank you Karen

[Davidgeo]

I love short poems that end with a haunting line.

[Cherrie]

Yes I do too, it clenches the mood. And thank you.

[Pete]

this reminds me of an old song with the same name by jethro tull. i like writes that say a lot with not many words. poignant ...

[Cherrie]

Hey, that's right forgot all about that, and thank you.

[CD Campbell]

It's surprising how some people can write so little but so profound. This is a good one. I enjoyed it. CD

[Cherrie]

They are just fun to write, I forget about them and then someone like Dale writes on and them I'm on my way again

Ghosts cannot find me
My shine has never been seen
