“Keith, is it haunted?”
“Of course not, Lisa… that’s just an old wives tale.”
“But what of the poor souls who lived there? Murdered in their sleep… I hear the screams sometimes.”
“Let’s prove it. We’ll sleep there tonight.”
Lisa woke up under the morning sky, alone, naked.

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
I’m ready for more of this story. Nice one.

Tossing It Out
More of this story, Arlee? Oh.. I’ve to think of it 😀 Let me see if I can.
Scary!! Love it! Where did Kieth go? 🙁
Ah, that can be left to the reader’s imagination I guess, TheMsLvh 🙂 Thanks! 🙂
Leo…such a wonderful, mysterious vignette story…Namaste
Thank you very much, Jeff 🙂 Glad you liked it.
Ooooo… I wouldn’t like the house disappearing !
Jenny had emailed me and said to post that entry I did anyway! LOL Soooo, I did!
LOL 😀 Cool, no problem, Daydreamer. Good to have read the poem of yours anyways! 😉
Lisa and Keith wouldn’t want it either, but it disappeared with one of them unfortunately 😉 😆
Cool one. Brought good efect. 55 Fiction is something I have not experimented too much with. I should also be trying more of this. By the way check out my entry, 1 777 er. http://luciferhouseinc.blogspot.com/2011/07/curse-of-last-swan.html
Hey, The Fool 🙂 Glad you liked it. And yes, I will check it out now and give a shout out! Have fun trying the 55 fiction form 🙂
Oh, ho! This is VERY interesting! It sounds like some of my stories for Saturday Centus! Keep the readers guessing–that’s the ticket!
Thanks for your comment on my post!
Hi Judie 🙂 Glad you found it interesting! I wanted to do it for Centus actually. Maybe expand a little 😀 But dropped by to see just 25 words as the limit this time 😛 So shifted Centus on a haiku this time. Welcome for the comment, I reeally liked yours as well. Got me wanting a return to school days!
Scary! Lisa must have been terrified!
She certainly would have been, Clariice.
Haunted.. Even house vansihed? Scary Leo..
Someone is Special
Yeah, house went poof too, SiS 🙂
W-ow.
You should extend this you know…from a 55er to something longer. Because this is reeeeally good and I want to read more!
Yes yes, I heard 😀 Let me see.. To take on two series at the same time, that’d be challenging I think. Glad you liked it, Antara, Thanks! 🙂
True enough 🙂 Yeah I can’t wait for the next part of your current series.
It’ll be out soon, Antara 🙂 Thanks for following it.
Inte-resting! And inte-restingly said. Some spooky night it must have been. You should do more of these… horror seems quite your genre. 😉
Really? 😮 OK. I’ll see if I can use your name as the star of a horror post then. 😉 Thanks, Deboshree 😆
