Last month's poem of the month writer, Michelle Hubbard, has chosen this month's poem. She says "I liked the poem... and read it to the friendly ghost that resides in my kitchen - it liked it too! I enjoyed its truth and simplicity and the honest acknowledgement of our spiritual world - with the usual denial we give it." The Higher Plane the old inn was demolished before it collapsed we built on its grave despite the legend of its ghosts on the 4th floor we sleep soundly undisturbed knowing that nobody lived or died this high up. © Paul Taylor 2004
