Yell and scream until you learn: Yell and scream until you learn
Only those who love wil burn
Using those who help themselves
Red shoes lined up on the shelves

Chanting love songs even though
Romance will not grow and thrive
Absolutely stay alive
Zen can cause the mind to bend
Young hearts broken never mend

Thank you, and thank you too: Thank you, and thank you too for reading it. Ghosts as such seem to be attracted to my family. But that feeling was most unpleasant. I have walked there since but thankfully not felt it again. sue.
