This haunting childhood song, but why ?

Last night I was woken by the clatter of two plates stacked on top of one another on my inside window ledge. It sounded like one plate lifted and then clattered down on top of the other. Just the sort of noise that jar's my ears. At the time I was dreaming of a group of people happily singing Mull of Kintyre. It was a hit in the 70's I think.

Earlier I heard that scraping noise around the top of the window frame. Its been maybe a year since that has happened. Its definitely feeling like winter now. Both these instances remind me of the ghost of Katherine in Wuthering Heights at the window of Mr Lockwood. Window weirdness has gone on here for two generations at least. I think Katherine is early this year.

    The windows of the surrounding houses here have a history of flapping wings being heard around them , and the manor next door still has a problem with windows opening themselves as a security guard told me during the filming there. The previous occupant of our house said it was the same in my childhood room.

So this song was playing today in a cafe. So many memories. Strange, and I should have known I would be frequenting said property before the day was out, even if it was only through trick n treating.  The lyrics capture a woman's ability to do a sudden deviation from what a man believes is so. The singer knows despite his current reverie he's doomed. Its just a brief season.  That cycle moon is so me.

  The dreams have started again, as they did this time last year. Last year she was a young short woman with dark hair who would stand very close to me. I could tell she had a great affection for me. I joked she was going to get frisky on last years blog. Last night she returned or rather a counter part of her did, but this time she had blond hair, tied back.  I found myself arguing with her in a garden she accused me of damaging. The flowers were quite robust and of the sun flower type or style. Suddenly in the midst of the argument she leans forward and kisses me on the lips instantly, and then carries on the argument with the same intensity as before. I then attempt to kiss her and she resists, all the while still scolding me until after a few attempts she yields. Heres hoping to seeing her again some night...

 I have no interest in astrology but I drive a Vauxhall   Astra    I constantly mis - type the word  Astra as Astar  A star...Astarte - Goddess of the Moon ! Ulalume  And now, as the night was senescent And star-dials pointed to morn— As the star-dials hinted of morn— At the end of our path a liquescent And nebulous lustre was born, Out of which a miraculous crescent Arose with a duplicate horn— Astarte's bediamonded crescent Distinct with its duplicate horn. After viewing strange lights I once saw a huge shadow cresent appear for an instant in the sky.
