Sparky

I thought I heard a scratching at the door

Familiar scrabbling across the floor

I thought I saw the curtains move and yet..

Do dogs have ghosts I ask myself? – You bet!

I guess the noises and stuff have always been there but we always put them down to the dog when some of them might not have been. (That's the rational explanation anyway) Haunting seems the wrong word. Presence maybe?

I've never felt haunted by anything or anyone, I sort of wish I had. My cat has never haunted me but last night I dreamed she re-appeared with two little kittens. Aaaah! They were just like her only littler.

Perchance a pen, for tis mightier than the sword...

Wuff wuff - there's always one straggler - I bet if you were to riot, you'd be the only one attacking Waterstones... :))
