Val, the Valiant Little Witch

Val was graduating from school, Her grade point average was good- Halloween night was her big debut, A difference she’d make, if she could! She liked to study and read her books, Straight “A’s” and nothing less- She was pretty and had good looks, And her manners were always the best- It did not matter what the class, Broom flying, charms, chants and more- She learned everything so lightening fast, Teachers sensed much promise in store- The little witch enchanted them, "A bit of evil lurked surely inside-" She twirled and whirled and held a slight grin, Knowing she had something to hide- The final exam was about to take place, Little Val was kind of afraid- Her clothes were laid out at home, so she raced, Then "goodbye" to her parents she bade. She opened the door and went on her way, A million things raced through her mind- She had to think straight,for this wasn’t play, Her secret, she hoped they’d not find- "Oh my" she thought as she returned to class, “I hope they don’t sense I’ve been lying- I pretend to be mean and I can harass, But the inside of me is just sighing-“ “Okay” said the teacher, Let’s hit the town, To show what each of you’ve learned- Please, witches beware, if you can’t cast a spell, Your diplomas you’ll have to return- So carefully, the class filed out, The administrators right by their sides- Little Val, she wanted to shout, But for now she’d have to abide- Moonlight was shadowed and not very bright, Sidewalks were crowded, not bare- All-Hallowed-Eve’s night had perfect light, And at all of them, not a soul stared- Lots of movement was stirring around, Costumes abound on this night- Val breathed in deeply, not making a sound, It was time to make things right! The little witch was conniving, it’s true, Now her powers were about to be tried- She had learned many things in sorcery school, Like, spells should never be misapplied! “HALT,” said Val in a voice loud and clear, “I have something that I must announce, This applies to everyone here, THIS WITCHCRAFT YOU HAVE TO RENOUNCE!” Little witch Val knew she had to work fast, And began quickly making her brew- “From this day forward until your last, Only good things can come from you!“ The teachers were stunned - so were her friends, Val had a goal from the start- A difference she'd made as she managed to cleanse, All the meanness right out of each heart!
