The Ghosts of Montreal – Memories Through the Eyes of my City

in montreal, there are places haunted,

ghosts and spirits, all undaunted,

by time and space and human eyes,

they linger still, beneath the skies.

the old montreal courthouse, it seems,

is where the ghost of a hanged man dreams,

while in the queen Elizabeth hotel,

a lady in red, her tale to tell.

the old port of montreal, so serene,

holds secrets dark, that remain unseen,

and the Mcgill university, so grand,

echoes with ghosts, from a distant land.

from the chateau Ramezay to the Notman house,

spirits roam free, as quiet as a mouse,

while the Griffintown ghost, with a mournful cry,

lingers still, as the years go by.

in montreal, there are places haunted,

where the past and present are always entwined,

where the ghosts of the past, so undaunted,

will forever remain, in our minds.
