One summer at midnight, I went to the church compound to steal tender coconuts. I was stealing tender coconuts, filling a jute bag, and taking a sip of beer. Suddenly, I heard someone whispering in the cemetery. With the jute bag, ran towards the cemetery. Someone was whispering, “One for me, one for you. ” I dropped the jute bag right there and drove straight home.
The next day, I informed my friends that there was a ghost in the cemetery and realized that it was not the ghost but they were Louis and Dominic distributing the stolen cashew seeds

Thank you for reading.

I never thought about going to a cemetery to harvest from the trees and plants there. I do have plans for a heist in which I get a cutting of an old rose.

Yes, you are right. People never go such places to steal, but to pray. when I saw cemetery in Charli’s post, then I got this idea ‘Whispers in the cemetery’

There’s lots to harvest in cemeteries, actually. One cemetery further up the peninsula has a hedge of berries. I have also harvested seeds of flowers. Funny, though, when we hear voices we think ghostly thoughts!

We have one cemetery over here where variety of bananas and different colourful flowers bloom. I like that cemetery and attend all souls mass over there. We take these places in that sense. This is the reason we hear voices.

A thrilling take on the prompt, Jane! I appreciate the imagery of coconuts by a cemetery, I’ve never seen them paired before, and I love it when a story challenges our expectations and assumptions of the world.

This was so much fun to read, I could imagine running away scared to death and finding out it wasn’t a ghost after all 😅
