tom saunders - ghost

I found this moving, sad, and yet unemotional, all at the same time.

Personally, I'm looking forward to scaring whomever I leave behind!

Good stuff, Tom.
Read this over at thoughtcafe. Really good. Understated yet sharp - it's the kind of poem that looks like it's been around for years.
I like it. The beginning is particularly strong. I agree with Liana's comment about its timeless quality. However, there is something about the line "To who I was and to who I was to you" that I'm not happy about. Clunky perhaps? It's difficult to read, especially for the first time. Well done Tom.
