Poetry / An Adventure Of Ghastly Proportions (Analysis)
I just moved in down the block
I have payed no attention the clock
The time is short I fear for the day
Night surely will soon be on its way
A small boy stands on my side walk
Motioning me to come and talk
I say hello and shake his hand
He replies he has lived for awhile on this land
I find his speech and his replies odd
However who I am to judge, for I'm not God
I laugh at his jokes and stories as we talk
Barely noticing my feet starting to walk
Soon were heading down the street
Whistling in time to a steady beat
We spot a house on Decadence Road
Its a very old, noble abode
With out a pause my friend changes course
I try to dissaude him, but my voice is hoarse
I feel a shiver run down my spine
As we approach the door that looks divine
With a shaky hand he reaches out
Turning the handle I prepare to shout
The door gives a creak that could wake the dead
Listening eagerly for what the past has said
We continue on through the lower level
Listening for the sounds of the ghosts that revel
Soon we find a grand stair case
And up we go at a hurrried pace
we find many rooms that are old and dirty
Clothes that look as if they were worn in 1830
Nothing scary nor ghastly to be seen
Like walking into a house on Halloween
We leave quickly though just in case
Afraid to come across a ghostly face
We close the door and stand on the road
Finally seeing the ghost that haunts that aboad
We scurry home as fast as we can
For the ghost we saw was that of an old man
He waved and smiled as we turned around
That old man has long been buried in the soft ground

Simple and concise. I was happily amused the whole way through.
You gotta respect Decandence Road.
Weak Ending- i think you should end with something more shocking or different than telling the reader that the ghost was dead, however.
Im pretty sure abode is the correct spelling btw.
“Nothing scary nor ghastly to be seen
