Witchful Thinking: A Cauldron of Poems
|
|
In these pages, my child, you will find
Zany witches designed to spellbind.
They do just as they please—
Making magic with ease—
Some are spooky, while others are kind.
There are poems about magical brews—
Poems of potions and spells witches use—
Poems of parties they give—
Poems of haunts where they live—
Poems to mystify, charm, and amuse.
Witty witches on pages within
Will most certainly bring on a grin.
With their capes and tall hats
And their frisky black cats
They are keen for your fun to begin.
