I am the last to know but the first to tell,
A stuffed animal sitting on the shelf
Perpetually out of rotation, yearning for the bed.
I am soft though and my fur is fresh.
There are stories and worlds yet to be explored
And I could be your loyal steed
If only given the space to speak.
Give me a chance to protect your soul
From the monsters in the dark and I promise
With the light of the stars as my witness
That there is no way for me to fail
When courage knows my name and fear does not.

Ghostly Happenings in Colorado
Disturbed Spirits In Denver, an expanse of greenery, Cheesman Park comes with a macabre history since it was once a burial ground known as Mount Prospect Cemetery established by General William Larimer in 1858. The job of exhuming bodies began, and some were left behind resting beneath the park. However, the ghostly spirits donβt wish to rest in peace beneath the park, and visitors here have felt cold touches, seen ghostly children playing at night, and heard a singing lady who disappears when approached.
