Simple Thoughts of a Complex Mind: The Old House

haunted_house
During my childhood, my parents rented a farmhouse outside of a small town in southwest Missouri. The owner kept up the cattle ranching and we lived in the house. As an eight year old boy, out of boredom, I would often wander about the farm during my free time. I have two younger sisters, but I often did not want to play with them.
Out in the middle of one of the pastures, was an old run down farm house with a gigantic old tree outside of it. The house was completely deteriorating. The front porch had missing boards. Many of the window panes were broken out. None of the shingles were left on the roof. You could tell that this house had been neglected for some time.
