Secret Candy
I silently slept -
Noise of laughter
In the distance
Crept.

Warm cuddly corner
Squeaking floor boards
Footsteps
Closer.

Sudden subtle pat
Breeze of spirit
Ghostly figure
Sat.

"Granddaddy?"
My imagination
Reach in pocket
Secret candy.

A reminiscent poem of my wonderful grandfather (Allah yarhama) who used to always surprise me with candy. This poem is in "story-like" format, of me imagining my grandfather's ghost appearing infront of me, but, of course I was dreaming.  But then I wake up, I find in my pocket a candy - secret candy. :)
