Halloween: Dead Tree Walking

 Halloween: Dead Tree Walking

"I came from Paradise lost;

would you walk with me?"

Dr Abe V Rotor

Limb of a dead tree resembling a headless human figure

I am the ghost that walks from a forest before;

I am the conscience of man sleeping in its core.

I am the memory from the distant past; 

lost among the throng, living in the dust. 

I came from Paradise lost, orphaned by the first sin; 

the hands that cared for me can't now be seen. 

I long for a heaven, too, a gift of being good and true, 

but if heaven is only for man then I did serve him through. 

But I am a ghost now. Would man join me for a walk 

to tell the world the story of a once mighty oak? ~
