Black Pumpkin
An old witch turned a pumpkin solid black
She had to prepare for a horrid spell
Once she’s gone forward there’s no turning back
The curse would send unwary ones to hell
Keeping her deal with the devil in tact
What she gave for her powers she won’t tell
The pumpkin glows with a burnt eerie scene
Knowing that its strength will surely redeem
