While I was on vacation in 1983 in Los Angeles, California
I decided to explore the sights
The thought of a haunted ship, I had to shed some light
So I took a self guided Tour of the Queen Mary
According to the Media, the ship was supposed to be scary
I ventured to different parts of the ship, and I personally didn’t feel anything nor see anything out of the ordinary
Imagine how the Guest feel staying at the Queen Mary Hotel thinking haunted
That would make some people to faint
The ship is no longer voyage active
It is a still ship being part of a solid pier
No spirits came out and told me to get off
For me, it would have been anchors away
The Queen Mary certainly wasn’t the Titanic
In fact while aboard, I didn’t feel the need to panic
I didn’t need to call Ghost Busters
I didn’t shout spirits come out
There were sounds of cracks
But remember, the ship is old and it must settle from time to time
As the narration continues, please keep that in mine
But back to the Media being their style
Sounds intriguing during while
The ship having its own Queen
No other majestic in between
The name added Mary
The actual name being Queen Mary
At least the ship doesn’t lean
There are no spirits that act mean
So there is nothing really to report
Nothing at all in sort
But what was that and the sound?
