the ghost of the meadow
a fiend, a faun, a road through the willows, a sky broken by rain
a song sung across a misty meadow, Lord, Lord won't you help me
I followed the call of that voice full of sorrow, and I'll tell you what I did see
a house made of mud by the shores of a river, a shroud of linen white and clean
dressed all in black was the girl with the yellow eyes, cloudy, and lost in a dream
and holding her babe close in her arms she sang "don't leave me now, don't leave me, not after what's become of me
my man lies bleeding far away from here, he left me and went 'cross the sea, and only returns as a vision to me
can you save me from my destiny, and carry me far from here?
I'll go to him, I'll go to him, and he shall know that it's me"
across the meadow, over mosses and sedges, I carried the girl and her babe
but when we came to the edge of the forest, they turned and looked at me
across the face of the girl and her daughter came horror and sorrow and tears

in the blink of an eye, they vanished into air, and left me 'neath the green canopy
time passed on, a star appeared in the sky above the trees
and across the meadows, a voice on the wind came calling with a voice so sweet
and sorrowfully did it plead
"don't leave me now, don't leave me
not after what has become of me
my love he lies bleeding far from here
he left me and went 'cross the sea
and only returns in my dreams.
can you save me from my destiny, and carry me far from here
I'll go to him, I'll go to him
and he shall know that it's me"
fleet I fled through the trees that night
and never returned to that place
but I still recall that haunted song
that called from the field of green

Good question. And really good poetry. I would be really freaked out if this happened to me. Has this ever happened to you or were you making it up as you went?

So after all that jibberish what is it that you are meant to be afraid of - apart from an overactive immagination?

I'm sorry, I read three sentences into your prose and then I heaved. Maybe you could rephrase the question?
