Very abstract, and you leave the reader to ponder at the end! I love your descriptive words; it is very easy to visualize as you read along.

Markie, thank you I value the validation of the poem.
Comment from Gypsymooncat
I guess I'd feel privileged once I got over my initial fear, if a ghost chose to write to me. Or write through me. I enjoyed this poem for the atmosphere it created around me as I read; it was ephemeral, surreal and ghostly, but in a very positive way. Well said!

Comment from roof35
This is a fun ghost story and it is well written. Your illustration, of course, sets the stage for your words so it pairs well. The voice of the ghost is perfect for getting the message across.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I enjoyed your challenge poem for the club. You clearly portrayed the POV of the ghost(s). Your lines read well with good flow and great imagery. I could see everything you wrote. I really like the last verse about the ghost saying to write my story before you are too old. Your art choice works well, too.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

JAn, I so appreciate your validating comments.
Comment from Mastery
Another fine poem, Jim. Your use of strong verbs through the entire poem accounts for most of its strength.
"Suddenly, a ghostly figure evolved
hunched over my deeply scarred
writing table with the bib of the
quill dipped in the jet black ink well"
Brilliant :) Bob

Thank you so much, Bob! I am certainly enjoying the FanStory world. Its been just over 15 months, the timeliness has been so valuable to keep my sanity through his Covid-19 world this experience and connections have been heaven-sent.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
You give words "Ghost Writer" a new meaning and a very fun one. You painted a clear image of this ghost holding a quill floating over your desk and telling you to write. It is a great poem about writing. I imagine you enjoy writing it, too.

Fantastic! Memories in the form of a ghost urging you to write them down. I wish my mom and dad had done that... I only have bits and pieces of thier lives. Thanks for sharing.

Boogienights, May you find the ability to reflect and capture your stories so that those in your life will have the opportunity to have fire side chats about your and your contribution to life.
Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear JLR your ghostly contribution to our Free Versers Club reminds me that I must get busy writing one myself as soon as I finish this batch of reviews that I must write for my growing list of friends.
But this dozen or more will do me in, and I may not get it done tonight.
As for your post, did your Ghost tell your anything more than you " Had to write their story?"

Suzanne, I am being led each and everyday by my spirit guides to write. This truly doesn't come to me as an option, it comes to me as a must do.
Comment from thaities, Rebecca V.
I often wonder how poets come up with their poetry. This site is an eye opener. I see that the brainpower of a poet is quite amazing. Well done!

Rebecca, as weird as this may sound, I believe for me, my best poetry doesn't come from brainpower, but that which is contained with in the heart and are often words that if I thought about them I would not find easy to write.

That is your gift!
