Hello ChristineB ,

I am here with a review for your holiday themed piece because I am taking part in "12 Days Of Christmas 2024" .

This is very funny story to read. It made me laugh at the end.

A couple of observations. This piece is listed as poetry, but it's really a short story or micro fiction.

I like how it's not very clear if the actors are actual ghosts that are having fun with each other or if they are fully alive actors who are pretending to be ghosts.

The way the Ghost of Christmas Past takes the word "present" literal and ends up giving Mr. Scrooge, who is a scrooge, a present in a big box was a good way to play with words.

Why did you add Ms. and Mr.? These ghosts could have just had their names without those added titles. Although they aren't wrong either. I was mostly surprised by Ms. Poltergeist. I thought that's more of a job description than a name.

Keep writing.

Annette
