steps withered with age
a war-torn life left behind
perhaps this spring comes
to bring blooms sweet like the love
he shared with his dear mother

these pandemic days
think of the horses clopping
through the crowded streets

remember children
in costumes so fantastic 
dancing in the street

in such crowded scenes
the horses teeth could be seen
their quiet laughter

❧✿❧

While on the subject of ghosts check out this bit of irony, when
i was a member of our senior choir at my parish (St Mary's RC Church) here in St James, 
we went to Lopinot to spend the day at the Legendary Count Lopinot site.
So here's the irony: he Count Lopinot never like being photographed but, there is a photo
in the house of his ghost MORE HERE
ghost of Count Lopinot -
we stare in awe
some believing some not

AND

Today's photo prompt at Sunday muse reminded me of an
outing with my book club in 2013 we went on: A Poetry Picnic and Rainforest Trek

we trek the paths 
where once our ancestors 
 passed in their hunting 

 ours a visit for
 the sheer entertainment in
 knowing these steps

pandemic lockdown
the cats deny themselves
social distancing

not for the pigeons
on the high voltage wires
still close cooing

continue bunching anyway

age-old normal hugs

words spill like leaves -
bright ink to misty covid
little lighthouses

beacons spell come hither
where hope banishes shadows -
where faith feeds seeds

daylight comes -
again and again regardless
night and her moon

she lingers
diaphanous in azure -
later shine she must
