Here again is the annual Belsize Drive Halloween display that comes with more than just a nod to our fascination, young and old, with scary things. And once again there’s a rhyming account of the evil things that can happen to good people. Scare me, Daddy.
Mr and Mrs Newlywed
Picked up their clubs
At the Marshall’s shed
Giddy on their honeymoon
…12 holes later death would loom
The Marshall warned a storm was near
But busy kissing, they did not hear
On the 13th green she grabbed the pin
As the skies turn dark
And the storm rolled in
The lightning forked and with a CRACK!
Both were killed on their favourite track
But if by chance you play at dawn
You’ll hear them walking on the lawn
They may be ghosts but as golfer do
Just step aside and they’ll play through
