Savannah

Date of death: January 20th, 1913

Light a candle but once a year
And speak the name Savannah dear
Before your eyes it will appear
Her painted face so full of fear.

Savannah was strangled
On the day of the dead
"It was a jealous boyfriend."
Someone once had said.

But the strangler was a ghost
Never to be found
And Savannah still lies silent
Deep beneath the ground.
