Mine come from what I hear and see.

There is a joke about a guy in a cemetery who sees a man chipping away at a headstone, he said they spelt his name wrong....
Sooooooo, this is what I wrote:
Walking through the cemetery, getting in my laps

From the distance I could hear tap tap tap

Curiosity, they say is what killed the cat

But I still wanted to know ‘what is that’

It was just ‘tap tap tap’ , no strange moans as I weaved through the stones.

I crept up and looked, and what could I see, but a little old man down on his knees,

With a hammer and chisel in his grip, he was going tap tap tap tip.

I said ‘what are you doing, you are disturbing the peace’ he looked up and said, ‘ I won’t be long’

You see, they spelled my name wrong.

This is What Chat GPT suggested:

Walking through the cemetery, just doing my laps,
When from somewhere in the shadows came a tap tap tap.
No groans, no ghosts, no howling cat—
Just that steady little rhythm saying tap tap tap.


Now they say curiosity is what finished the cat,
But I followed the sound anyway, thinking, “What is that?”
Past the moonlit stones, where the cold winds creep,
I crept along softly—trying not to wake the sleep.


Then I saw him—knees down, spectacles on his face,
A little old man working in that quiet place.
Hammer in his hand, chisel in his grip,
Going tap tap tap tip, never missing a chip.


I said, “Sir… you’re disturbing the dead!”
He looked up, smiled, and nodded his head.
“Oh, don’t you worry, I won’t be long—
I’m just fixing something they carved wrong.”


He pointed at the stone with a ghostly sigh:
“They forgot the H in my name when I died!”
Then he winked and returned to his nightly craft—
And the graveyard filled with his tap tap tap.


So if you’re out late and hear a spooky little rap…
Don’t fear the ghosts, or the bats, or the undead chap—
It’s probably just that old man correcting his epitaph…
One tap tap tap at a time.

ChatGpT gave me the prompt for Suno, which I loaded, tried a few ideas and then, This is what I got:

Version 1

Version 2


You do not need much to build a song or a poem, just a few words or a few lines is enough

Have fun and enjoy being creative
