ELEMENTAL  ENGLISH  HOLIDAY

 

 

 

I met a playful spook on Hallowe'en---

A point-eared fellow whom I could have sworn

I knew:  for his accent had the sweet tone

And charm of an East Coast American,

A sound that is familiar,  and one

 I love,  because the East Coast is well-known

To me.  When questioned he did thus explain,

'' I'm on vacation---  across the Ocean

I haunt the attic of a house in Maine''.
