Don’t scream when you first meet a ghost
     For you’ll cause it alarm and despair,
And frightening a creature like this
     Is something that’s not really fair.

​

Ghosts were once people you know
     And they long to be somebody’s friend.
Their lives were SO happy on earth;
     They were sad when they came to an end.

​

Ghosts are quite friendly you know  -
     Look there’s one that is all dressed in black 
And, oh look!  He is carrying a stick
     But for certain ghosts never attack.

​

See that one that is sat on a grave?
     In the shadows it looks pretty grim 
But a smile and a wave just from you
     Will bring lots of pleasure to him.

​

There’s another one clinking his chains,
     But he’s perfectly harmless you know.
Folk think that ghosts don't laugh at jokes
     And are creatures who’re all full of woe.

​

But creepy?  No, certainly not!

     And they don’t all roam round in the night.
See, this one has just called: 'Hello' - - - -
     Oh come back.  Please don’t rush off in fright!!
