The Canterville Ghost

Daily writing prompt
Who is the fictional character you relate to the most?

Oh I would like to be dramatic and perhaps fill the air,

With wafts of forthright behaviour like Jane Eyre,

Perhaps though her time has passed,

Modern women are much more fast,

I could split my personality and jump the gender divide,

And pursue my worship of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hide,

Forsooth that journey would be quite a ride,

I’m not sure everyone would be on my side,

I think today though I’m on a Gothic Dream,

For my choice I think is a bit extreme,

Who else could I be but for a day ,

But the unfortunate and forever young Dorian Grey,

As I’ve ended up on a Wylde note,

The character that would win my vote,

The one I really liked the most,

Would surely be the Canterville Ghost

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
