'Ghost In The Darkness' Poem by Linda Winchell

There's a ghost in the darkness of my room
which I only seem to see.
It lurks in those darkened corners
and I always know he's watching me.

Mom said I shouldn't be afraid
it's just my childs imagination, she said.
So I'll pull the covers up over me
while safe now in my parents bed.

Mom and Dad won't mind I guess
If my Ghost comes visit them.
I'll just tell them It's their imagination
it's all just make believe and pretend.
