The Witch Next Door

A misconception is the tale that witches wear such evil faces That we should dread October's spell or cloudy nights, and creepy spaces A wart-nosed witch that rides a broom is not the girl who lives next door who hides away, some lonely room She may be fair, she may be more Have you met a lonely ghoul who names her spiders Mold and Slime? Brewing potions, but is no fool We'll pass her by most every time Witches pass us by each day They don't play games of hide and seek Ghouls are clever and want to play and normal friends they want to meet The cauldron cleaned with spit and shine will brew a drink that's rather bold Prepared to hold a drink of wine Beware that it will knock you cold! She'll host a party, if you dare! Sweep misconceptions out the door You'll have a blast if you're prepared The witch is just a neighbor right next door! _________________________________________ For Alfred's Contest: Witchcraft 8/23/14
