Ghosts 
by Dawn Mclachlan 

The dead return on stealthy feet 
and in the quiet ways
Not in the shrieks of myth
Or the clanked chains of literature 
Not in spectral bloodied cloth
And creaks of floor
They require neither season nor reason
Instead they appear in the watch unwound 
The drawer jammed by a rusted penknife
They rise from a homeless key
And a half- remembered phone number
They tumble from yellowed photo albums
slipping from unused tools
in spider-webbed racks
They linger in restless moments 
passing through childhood towns
They surprise us in the expression of a child
Or the saying of a friend
They return not in the fearful dread
But in the sorrowful silence
Or in a distant song that snatches breath
And brings an unexpected smile
