Cassie the Witch
Cassie, a green faced witch could not find the right kind of man
I think I’ll make an elixir and create him, she would deadpan
She actually did it, wearing her fanciest ruffled dress
It had not been ironed, so was a bit of a mess
Her purple hat had rosettes of green, fuchsia, and teal
She incorporated a few

Had a rather shadowy pitch,
she stirred her bubbling pot,
and caused more trouble than you thought!

Burn the witch
They say I'm a witch, but when I told them I have a spell to make them write poetry, they shout "Free the witch!"
But when I say I'm a writer, they want to hurt me. As soon as I mention my spell to make words touch hearts, they say "Free the writer!"
To me, it doesn't

A Tale From The Loom - XXI to XXV
They journeyed long the way to love not straight as science rule;
To scale high peaks that merged into the wispy mountain dew;
Over green hills, past forest trees - gale winds would shake and bend;
Through scorching suns or driving rains to reach their journeys end.
Unknown to him her witching had ensured against all failings;
She breathed desire,

A Tale From The Loom - XVI to XX
The lair aglow with brightness now she saw the Dragon clear;
Immense in form and stature with a grin from ear to ear;
From nose to tail smooth skin of black his fiery eyes alert;
He strutted, bristled with a force he knew he could exert.
Along his back and legs were studs so diamond-like a-glistening;
She saw his beauty

A Tale From The Loom - XI to XV
"As such he ambled through to here which I cannot undo;
You are advised to still comply, ensure your line stays true"
No, not his rotund form alone did shake her to the core;
For that he could still move at all was not to be ignored;
It was the odours he exuded, stale of several weeks;
His shorts two

A Tale From The Loom - VI to X
She lays the carpet on the floor as though a regal dress;
Each loving stitch sewn by her hand displays no sign of stress;
The time has come to greet her fate though not a hint of fret;
She sits with folded legs her arms are laid across her chest.
She waits that witching hour now to speak the

A Tale From The Loom - I to V
I let your eyes to visualise a garden on a loom;
Bluebells and marigolds in sway and lavender in bloom;
And there to play in a luscious green two kittens wrestling;
Up high in chirping swallow's play are feathered friends a-singing.
A figure of a handsome man is settled on a chair;
And by his side a beauty pure strokes

It's not so easy being a witch
Whew ~ I'm all tuckered out
from doing my day-to-day spellcasting business,
conjuring this and conjuring that,
bewitching this and bewitching that,
I hate to say it but I'm not
the young enchantress I used to be.
It's time for a break and have some brew ~
what I need next is to summon my charming warlock
to make me feel those long

Sunny Side
Always walk on the sunny side of the street
where the grass is always greener
my advice... give a wide berth to the shady side
(unlike Little Red riding the 'hood)
as over there the streets are meaner
better yet focus on the good
where life is pleasantly serener
maintain a positive outlook
and keep a cheerful demeanour
please don't be annoyed vex or

Guitar Sorcerer
He steps into moonlight, strings ablaze,
A spell-bound master in a midnight haze.
Notes crack like lightning, dark flames rise,
Echoes twisting through spectral skies.
From covens deep and forests old,
He forged a sound both fierce and bold.
A serpent’s hiss, a banshee’s wail,
His fingers dance—an

Witch Is Worse
Witch Is Worse
Ha-Ha. Just Kidding.
Which is Worse?
Tired Of Winning
Or
Tired Of Losing?
You Might Be Surprised.
But, Some People Aren't
So, Don't Be Too:
Dis-Appointed.
