Witch Stirring Pot Cartoon Illustrations, Royalty-Free Vector Graphics ...

Two drops of blood a pinch of fur In the pot she started to stir Then a magic word That none of us heard We wondered what next would occur The boiling water was scary A monster ugly and hairy We were all afraid For what had she made It was just a green canary

For some reason, I thought it was Boris Johnston. She could have put him back.

Dear Bill, it certainly is a week for limerick’s and I’m loving them! They are such fun. I love this one- it’s really adorable alongside the picture. I love the surprise, the punchline, at the end as it keeps you guessing what is being conjured up in the pot! It looks like you are definitely getting the hang of it lovely friend. Thank you for making me smile. I look forward to hopefully more from you :):)

Thank you, my kind friend. Your comments are encouraging. I have a long way to go, but they seem to be getting a little better, at least the form in more correct. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

your image was cute and perfect given the childlike story line of your Limerick. The last line was a surprise which I guess is the point of a well-written Limerick. Your Limerick made me smile... :-)

Love your smile miss Sara Etgen Baker. You're the best! Bill
