Autumn, Sunday teatime
The veil is wearing thin
Scents from the past
Slowly meander in
Stealthily they creep
Upon the fragile air
I look around and half expect
To see you standing there
Among the shadows and dying light
In the place that was your home
A sense of presence fills the air
A touch so slight and cold
They say I ought to be afraid
Having spirits in my home
But I quite like these eerie Sundays
When you stop by to say hello
