If I Was Scottish
If I was Scottish I would be thrilled to be a carline.
Caren the carline. It has a jazzy ring, a charismatic sound.
Old? Check.
Witch? Double check, triple check, quadruple check.
A Wiccan is a fine label if you are from my family
Of well-hidden prophetesses.
I am proud of my secret heritage.
To do no harm.
One with the creatures of the land.
Natural healers and gardeners.
Lovers of life, and animals.
Caren the carline.
It has a snazzy ring.
Let me be Scottish….
Because I already am
In my soul.
