Haunted Souls
by Shelly Wiseberg
Ghosts from the forest
whispers an enchanting spell,
on the magical path of wizardry.
People from the past
leave behind memories
for their loved ones,
hoping to catch glimpses
of shadow faces in mirrors,
sensing movement of bright orbs
lingering light through misty night.
Sky rider holds onto heart song
sung by heroes of all good things
that come to an end sewn in spirit
of common thread from the dead
who live beyond this world.
Suspense and intrigue
captures the mystery
of a secret place hidden,
way below the surface
in eerie black spaces
coming out of nowhere,
haunted souls speaking
with invisible voices
calling from the other side.
Messages from the forest
whispers many names,
then silence remains
from this day forward,
investigating the unexplained.
