Jack Ray

Do Ghosts really exist? An ancient question which has not been answered by even the most modern of our devices. But until nothing is proven, ghosts have been a part of thousands of books and movies. Many have profited from them and I hope to entertain you with a poem I wrote last Sunday.
SPOOKY READING:
Walking in a jungle path I once noticed
A wierd whistling sound following me
I tried to run but my feet were numb
Only one thing could save me :my luck

At the joint of the path I saw another young man
Looking worn out yet handsome
I asked his name and he said"Jack Ray
Enviorenmentalist living and dying for the day"

Continued he " To pass the time I will tell you a story
Not very long, very boring or very gory
Once lived a man in the slums and streets
Wanted to be famous someday
But alas, he never knew what a life
Would come across his way

He discovered some wierd things
On the earth itself
But never told a soul about them
Apart from his own self

One morning the sun rose and the birds chirped
But the notepad with all his thoughts
Was never ever seen again
So everyone considered it lost.

But for him the night never came
For that notepad meant him his life
So if you find it someday
Please return it to his wife."

With that I turned right
And Ray went the other way
But in front of me was a gravestone
With the words 'Jack Ray
Environmentalist living and dying for the day'
