Vivid sight

Down the pathway to the left

there stood an oak with considerable heft


Through the trees on a windowpane

light melts vague like a sugarcane


"The house is haunted," he said to me,

and scared away a frantic bee


I chuckled as my blood ran cold

A girl had died, that's what he told


I double-checked the amorphous shade

that laded on the windowpane


Mumbling something he didn't catch

I stormed through the tulip patch


For what it's worth I tried to resist

looking at the figure formed of mist


First emerged a hand, forearm and wrist

then the eerie curve of my own lips unkissed

~~
