MOONS…

Many moons ago…

…a teenager assumed the fetus position and sobbed

So much tears that death followed closely

And because death arrived at a sad time

The sound of crying can still be heard when one enters this location

A zone of hauntedness’

Many moons ago…

…this location, were death resides, remains questionable…

…considered a haunted hot spot

But the full tale has never been told…

…according to some…

…a jealous youth was charged with murder

The story indicated that at the time of arrest

Youth excitedly shouted: “My heart was broken; things were not to end this way”

Many moons ago…

…a teenager looking frail and lost

Cried to death in this room

It was the first murder in this fashion

From any direction within eye sight

No such event has ever occurred…

…teenager murdering teenager!

No one could imagine such killings in these parts

First youth killing centered on a very unusual spin-off

Tears, the ironic twist of second crying to death

At that time, because they were all so young

There were bans on publication of names to the public domain

Many moons ago…

…a young killer escapes lock-up

Returning to this scene of the crime

With knife in hand " different, but identical

As the wrist factor was removed through the spilling of blood

Where a suicide was conceived and carried out

This room has remained locked for a decade since those tragedies

As other teenagers’ break-ins occurred - out of curiosity…

…more episodes stating: “This location had some ghostly guests”

Many moons ago…

…police plead for all to keep away

But, teenagers often never listen

As the township evokes measures

To sentence anyone caught here

Since the families of the deceased teenagers

Refuse several offerings to tare down this site

All around the location there are signage…warnings:…

…'this location is a haunted hot spot!’

But this has just created more interest in visitations!

Many moons ago…

…the families of the victims

Established this location as memorial

So here we stand…

…50 years later…

…fetching presence, sensing activities…

…of the happenings from many moons ago!

…reversing forward, future is history!
