Undercover

The moon
  so hazy
in early winter sky
  fights to break through
  
denied, she
  casts her spell
undercover
  
as a door creaks
  near me 
while streaking
  across the sky

a ghostly hag
  on her broomstick
    ~ cackles

Boil, boil, bubble and bubble. Comparing anything I write to old Willy S. brings witches out on the double! There you go. Thanks, Tom! Holiday best, Gershon

I saw a witch over my house one night... but it turned out to be that lady from 'The View.' Have a great night my friend.
