Room No. 14
Footsteps are heard along the corridor,
A door has just banged shut!
There is the sound of running water,
The tap is then turned off.
Perhaps the guest had retired
For the bed is heard to squeak.
During the night the running tap is heard
again and again..........
Then left to drip, drip, drip.......
The Housemaid checks next morning but-
No house-guest checked in last night yet -
The door is found wide open - clipped back,
But there is no one in sight.
Strange - the basin is full of water
From the dripping tap,
Yet nothing has been disturbed,
No one had slept in the bed......
At the grand old Station Hotel,
These sounds are only heard
When the room is vacant, for -
Rather noisy, never seen,
Is the friendly ghost
That occupies Room No 14.
