PROMPT #241 – The only ghost that scares is a past version of you

In the spirit of the past

pray that it wasn’t so glum

birds flew and events had passed

some tune I couldn’t even hum

no need to run after me

pray that it wasn’t so glum

lost to the world but can’t be free

willowy tree outside my door

no need to run after me

myths of failure that I could score

growling dog calling for his bones

no need to run after me

water trickling down those stones

one two three and I would be off

growling dog calling for his bones

yet I’m not ready to scoff

in the spirit of the past

one two three and I would be off

birds flew and events had passed*
