Leopard Girl
"Use my Oil and Mill my Seed
My healing powers are all you need'
I am Me Set me Free - by Maria Williams
Leopard girl searches at night
for her lost leopard who took fright.
She calls out his name my dear Leopold
after sundown when her magical powers take hold.
Shadows of the night follow her wherever she goes,
searching the miles of paths and never slows.
Sleeps during the day dreaming of her lost friend,
existing without him would only mean the end.
One night when the moon was shining bright,
the owls hooted in their wise and knowing delight.
They led her to a cave where a witch did dwell,
looking inside she saw Leopold in a cell.
With all her powers Leopard Girl blew lock open,
Leopold ran to her with words unspoken.
The witch of the cave waved her veiny hand,
the air clouded with a storm of thick sand.
Time to rid of the witch and her wicked spell,
Leopard Girl forced the old hag in the cell.
A happy ending to make this poem complete,
two friends are together again is a treat.
