“When the moon is up and the world is still,
a ghost might visit from over the hill.”
“Some ghosts were people, some were not.
Some like reading, some forgot.”
“They might go ‘boo!’ to say hello,
but most ghosts don’t want to scare you, you know.”
“They float through walls and ceilings too,
but they still remember me and you!”
“Some ghosts are lonely, some are shy.
They stay behind but don’t know why.”
“Some want hugs, or have tales to tell,
or guard a place they once loved well.”
“If you see a ghost, don’t run or cry—
just smile and wave as they float by!”
