No, we just pushed them all off the cliff! Actually I was a bit worried this morning cos I heard about 12 sirens blaring. In a village you always think it's someone you know. Glad she's OK whoever she is!

A good write, this, Ann. Teasing the imagination. Reminded me a bit of Robert Frost in places.

PS St Agnes in the national news! You must be knee-deep in reporters at the moment

Haunting rhythm. I love "gases bubble". Makes me think of Wuthering Heights.

Ghosts eh? Sounds autobiographical this - sort of imaginings I had as a kid. My fav stanzas 1 & 3. Really good.

Nice one, Foxy.
Couldn't help but think of the film "The Others".

A bit unsettling this one,Ann.Perhaps harking back to some awful happening in the past'but I know what is waiting there,In the cottage ,on the stair'.
Is the main character a ghost herself?
Very interesting and something to think about!
