Witches Tears

What is that noise,what can I hear? It echoes round,first far, then near The mountains tremble with the sound The animals all run underground
A river of water rushes by Yet not a raincloud in the sky It comes from deep inside the wood I'd go and look there, if I could
But in the wood there lives a witch A woman with an evil twitch She has the spells to say a verse That will surround you with a curse
A little doe stands by a tree He lifts his head and looks at me Please help the lady, he implores Into the silence, between roars
Very slowly, I walk in Move towards that awful din Where it comes from,I know not Then I find the very spot
A lady, old, sits by the fire Noise of wails gets even higher What is it witch, what can I do ? What is it makes you feel so blue
She lifts her face and wipes a tear I've cast these spells for many a year But I am sad and all alone No one dares come near my home
Come on now witch,please don't be sad Being good is not so bad Helping others is the key Raise a smile and you'll be free
She lifts her head and smiles at me A fairy flies out from a tree She kisses lady on the hand And sprinkles her with grains of sand
A puff of smoke and there she stands Beauty queen of fairyland In a forest, not a wood No more evil, only good

Wonderful you too have found sympathy with a poor witch. In my stories I have to make them evil but inone of mypoems I have written a tribute to those poor old ladies that go out into the woods looking for roots and herbs ,flowers etcetera. Lovely poem Ros greetings from bernard. |
