I enjoyed life, I can’t deny it but I had no idea how much fun things would be when I left it behind and changed from a load of worn out flesh and bones into something resembling a puff of smoke!
When they dumped my worn out body in that grave yard, or the human scrap yard as I call it, I rose within seconds and became the ghost I am today, there was no way I’d settle for becoming nothing more than a messy rotting pile of manure feeding weeds!
Little did you you know, but I was there at my wake – awake at my wake you could say! I was looking forward to hearing what they actually thought of me.
I watched my mate step onto the podium and start saying some really sweet things. I knew he was exaggerating, I wasn’t really as nice as he made out, but hey-ho! He said I had a wicked sense of humour so I though I’d edge up behind him and tickle his neck! He started to scratch, tremble and splutter, they all thought he was overcome with emotion!
They decided it was time to dance and played one of my favourite songs, Gimme Shelter by The Stones. I was in amongst you, dancing too. He may be gone but ole fella still rocks onl

I love this Keith – especially your ‘ghostly’ voice I am so glad the old guy is still rocking 🤘😅
Thanks, Ange, it took me several goes so I’m pleased it was worth it!
I wanna be a ghost! Love the voice over!
Join the club, Jodi! Thank you.
that was great fun, thanks! I wouldn’t usually click on the ‘play’ button, preferring to read things myself, but I’m glad I did – hearing the story read in your own voice really gave it something extra!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Fantastic, dear Keith, and your voice made my day! Great fun!
Haha, thanks so much Nancy!
Love it, Keith. Wouldn`t it be grand to be there at our own wake? Assuming we are well-remembered, that is…
It’s something I’ve often thought about! Cheers, Dale.
Why am I not surprised?
It would be nice to know what people will say about us, I suppose. Then again, you know what they say about eavesdroppers!
As long as it’s all good!
This is too cool Kierh!
Thanks, Rob!
Good one Keith!
way to go!!! and I love that song too –
Yet another different take on the words! Nicely done, thank you.
My take on the prompt is here.
It would a nice experience to attend one’s own funeral.
This is so creative, with its touches of humor!
