            words  are spider, ghost,scarecrow,snake and cat,
The cat was chasing  a snake under the scarecrow
I walked  into the field,dodging spider webs galore
I often wondered  if ghosts visited  would I  know?
The cat stopped and I  wondered whats in store?
The snake was caught  in a spider web how odd
 The cat hissed,snake lunged and I threw a sod
  Mr snake decided we were too much and left
  Picking up the silly cat I cannot say I was bereft,.
So the scarecrow stood alone in the field
I wondered how many ghosts were revealed
Old farmers plowing the dusty fields
Old crops   waiting oh the big yields.
Just because we see no ghosts means nothing
Perhaps we hear old sounds, memories bring
The past becomes a living thing

                    I loved the idea of a scarecrow watching the ghosts of crops and farmers past! Lovely use of the words!
