[hometext] => You would be scared, too
[bodytext] => I'm alone in the house. It's ten thirty three, There's a knock at the door, I'm afraid to go see, I've just read, 'Scrooge' it could possibly be An apparition out there who's coming for me. I thought of the year that has gone before, Did I do wrong for the ghost at the door, I gave a tithe and a good bit more, To keep all the fates, from me, being sore. It's true I did laugh at Mary Jane She can really be an awful pain, She wants for me to be her swain, Whatever she wants, she wants in vain. Could it be, I caused a little leak, I couldn't swim the chesapeake, I'm bad when I play Edvard Grieg, I didn't coach the little league. I guess I have to see who's there, Apparitions are really very rare, Ah, who's afraid of a knock on the door? Nothing can hurt me.. that's only lore. I got out of the chair, put my hand on the bolt, I'll be a big man, I'll act an adult, I swung open the door and what did I see? My spinster aunt Mary, come to visit me. Now, here's how I feel 'bout this spinster aunt, She's daddy's young sister. She always says, "Can't" She's the drag of the party..you know the kind, She'll drive you slowly.. out of your mind. If you love your family as much as I do, There still must be one.. you can do without, too, An apparition might.. have been seen at the door, But I'd rather have 'Appy' than Auntie, for sure.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
