Witch's Lone Retreat

There are orange leaves down today Witches love the sight I must say They play with leaves full of delight To gather strength needed tonight I don’t know how this is the way There must be some spell on this day That gathers sparks when they go play They don’t sweep these leaves, it’s a sight Witch’s lone retreat They wallow, take their cares away Keeping trepidations at bay This tradition may not be right They’re fully charged ready this night They venture, telling all will pay Witch’s lone retreat
