She was just a lost
little girl ghost
maybe 7 or 8 years old
never making a scary sound
never bothering anyone
just going about her business
searching for something
nobody knows what
perhaps she was just an imprint
a residual image
looping over and over
searching for a parent
brutally taken out of this world
nonetheless whether a real ghost
or just a residual looping image
it was a pitiful sight
seeing this lost, little girl ghost
night after night.

Bob Boyd
