Witches Knickers

The old lady made a brew
She called it magic, a potion stew
It made men wise, and made them kind
This little witch wasn’t the evil kind

She lured the wary, into her lair
She cooked up compassion with a flair
For every wrinkle, she had a smile
Her ginger house, was sought for many a mile

Love is magic as anyone knows
Her broom swept away, many a woes
In Ireland she sleeps, long since gone
So witches knickers, in memory, haunt on

What a dear little witch. Bless her knickers. I love this and you have quite a knack for creating myths. SuZ

Knickers is a word seldom used here in the US, so it gave me a chuckle to see it again! A delightful piece with splendid couplet rhyming and flow. BRAVO my friend!! Best wishes, Keith
