The Rat Man ... My Story ... My Vision

The Rat Man 

My Story ...My Vision

Can't Believe what Happened

I can't believe its true.

How a friend on facebook 

brought back my memories of you.

The Original Picture

 Just Added My Name & A Frame

Original Still On My Computer Untouched

 I Added My Rhyme

Put It On Face Book

All I Could See At This Time

    Was A Row Off Little Ducks

Till Dawndy Pointed Out To Me 

What She Could See

So I Just Took

A Closer Look 

Oh No 

 A Story I Could See

Unfolding To Me

In This Picture I See... 

A Man Falling Wearing A Hat 

I Can See Him Holding His Boat With His Hands 

His Legs Either Side

I Can See A Key To The Left Of The Falling Man 

Pictures Edited From Original

Follow The Picture Down Where I See A Skeleton

 Move To The Right Of The Skeleton

I Then See A Face Of A Man Being Pulled Up 

By The Grim Reaper A Dark Figurine Who's Arms In The Air Holding A Scythe

This Leads Me On To The Arm Of A Ghost

Who's Holding The Mans Hair

Follow The Arm Down This Makes A Loop

(Look In Side This Closely A Vision I See that Of A Lady )

Follow The Loop Around

Now The Head And Face Of A Ghost Appear

Follow The Head Down 

On The Ghosts Right Shoulder I Can See A Begging Rat

The Ghosts Other Arm Makes A Serpent Looking At The Rat

On The Serpents Back There Is A Hat

Within The Ghosts White Body Is A Cross In His Heart

While Down In His Cloak 

I See A Headless Body 

Similar To A Egyptian Cave Drawing

Other Images I See Above The Ghosts Head

A Bottle Shaped Hallo ..

With A Sad Face 

Then Steps Leading Upwards

This Is What I See ...

Some Facts That You Should Know ...

About The Rat Man 

3rd Feb 2009

He Fell From His Boat

On This Same Stretch Of Canal

While Changing His Gas Bottles 

That Are Chained To The Boat With A Key 

He Used To Catch Rats And Had A Rat Trap 

And In The Coroners Report

 A Tragic Accident 
 

Taken Back  By What I Saw

I Had To Make A Blog

http://shalloweirstories.blogspot.com/2012/01/rat-man-they-say-that-people-come-back.html

Maybe He's Gone

But Chose Me To Live On 

We Called Him 

The Rat Man

We Never Knew His Name

For We Only Ever Met Him As We Walked By With Inca 

And He Chatted As We Passed

Reminding Inca To Beware Of The Rat Trap

One Day We Saw Him

He Travelled Alone With His Two Dogs

We Met Him As We Sailed Our Boat

We Helped Him Through A Lock 

....

So Having Heard The Tragic News

 The Rat Man 

Drowned In The Frozen Canal

Trying To Change His Gas  Fell Of His Boat

I Felt Touched And Wrote Him A Poem

Laminated It So People Could See

He Didn't Die In Vain

We Took A Primrose Bowl &Bulbs 

And

We Went Down That freezing Day

  On The Bench I Tied The Poem 

Placed The Bulbs Beside

There Was Only One Other Floral Tribute

It Made Us Feel Quiet Sad And We Cried ;(x

A Wooden Cross On The Other Bank

Read ... RIP Des Hutton

We Went Back ToWalk Inca Two Weeks Later

My Poem Still Hanging There 

The Floral Tribute Gone 

Now My Bowl Of Bulbs 

 Been Placed The Other Side The Canal

Next To The Cross

Don't Know Who Moved Them

Don't Know Who Cared

I Took Down My Poem 

And Brought It Home With Me 

Gone But Not Forgotten x

I Don't Know Why 

But I Had Kept

The Newspaper Cuttings from That day 

Along With My Poem 

Hidden Away 

 Is This Why 3 yrs On

Almost To That Day 

He Came Back 

His Memory Will Last

Through My Story To You

R.I.P

Now You Have Heard My Story 

Can You Please Tell Me What You See ?

Dawny this was jsut a normal picture my mum took about 6 months ago, I am not sure what made her post it to facebook the other day, but she did not see the man until you pointed him out, then after you did it become so obvious he was there, my dad looked and instantly said oh its the rat man... now the rat man was a man who lived on a canal boat, mum and dad spoke to him as they passed they called him the rat man because he would catch rats and lend out his trap to fellow boater, he was not a close friend and so mum and dad din't know his real name, but then on 3rd of febuary he sadly lost his life, he was trying to change his gas canister and somehow slipped this is a link to the story reported locally:http://www.thisisderbyshire.co.uk/Heartbreaking-moment-realised-friend-s-body-canal/story-11557614-detail/story.html mym mum wrote him a poem the days after his accident and took it to the canal, but since then its not really been mentioned, until now as like you say the images are so very clear - we are as intreaged by this as you are and mum just wonders if its our over active imaginations or if the picture really shows somethign more?
