It amazes me either by poem or story the amount of horror, creepiness and scare you can come up with, which is always told so well. I love to read your stuff. Excellent poem Dean.

Comment from Cedar
This is another great piece of work my friend. It's so perfect for the Halloween season. I understand that a lot of members don't approve of the music you use with the presentation of your poems, however, I enjoy it. Especially, when it's of a soft version such as this one. I think you have a very special and unusual talent for creating this type of material. In my opinion, don't change any portion of your style of writing and one day soon, people will be asking you for your autograph. Great job. Bill

Thanks, Bill, and don't worry, my friend. I'll not deviate from my vision. Initially, everyone thought Thomas Edison to be mad, too, (LOL). "A device to create light by simply flicking a switch. It'll never happen...", they said. Ah ha, but we know better, don't we, my friend?
Thanks again!

No question about it, Dean - you have a rare ability when it comes to versifying. This poem flows, snag-free, as if the rhymes were tailor-made for your purpose. Impressive, buddy!

Comment from Jade Lawson
It seems that my broadband is back, so bear with me. I truly enjoyed the sound and the whole presentation, which you are a master in doing these.
OMG that story of Robert is a scary one, and then all his friends died. You explored his legend very well. Many horror writers don't believe that ghosts and these sort of things are real, I do believe, I experienced stuff in my own house in first hand, some are good, some are bad. Good ending line in this poem.

Graveyard on the hill, such vivid scary story, such tension coming from dancing bones. And all these thoughts placed over dark scary picture,to make great poem grater.

Good description with the words that draw a clear imaginary in the mind of the reader. Good perfect rhyming with bright/fright...play/say...craves/graves...filling/chilling...needed/seeded...motion/potion...square/scare...away/say. Good clear message supported by good author's notes.

What a scary story and what an image you have created with the ancient graveyard on the hill. This truly is a well written story/poem befitting of a Halloween thriller. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from michaelcahill
I don't even know what to say. The poem itself without pictures or music or presentation other than words on paper is amazing in its imagery and flow. The cleverness and humor (but not too much) add a tension that makes you chuckle nervously but not laugh for you don't really want to be heard. Now, add to that a show to end all shows. Me with no sixes when sevens wouldn't do. Reminds me of Springstein. Two hours of unbelievable rock and roll. The lights go up. And then the lights go down. Two more hours!! Standing ovation!! Mike

Comment from Tomes Johnston
This is another excellent poem from the author. I am from just across the border in Donegal, so this is a story very close to home for me, even though I'm living in London now. Thank you for this great story.

Yikes - dancing bones - young Robert had connections! I want to hear more about the witch....(she says as she grins evilly...LOL)
What a great poem, Dean. Yet again you thrill us with the tale and enthrall us with the presentation - fabulous!

Thanks so much for this outstanding review, Dawn. I suspect that the witch was master Robert's mistress, as he was privy to her spells. Hey, you don't get that from WalMart, LOL...
Thanks again!
