“WITCHES BREW”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
She lives among them in the cypress swamp,
with the gators, possum’s, and other things,
spending most of her day thinking, muttering,
about the dark of the nights awakenings…

Swirling thoughts are in her wanting mind,
all about happenings when the daylight ends,
I hear whispers from behind trembling tree,
and listen to the passionate message she sends…

Would she be of softness, as a maiden’s breast,
tenderly smooth of skin when we embrace to kiss,
quiver gently from my desires warmest touch,
or know from her lips silence, or a ghastly hiss…

Night comes slowly and with it the shadows,
melodic sounds of her comes from the bayou,
ghostly moonlight trembles with her fire,
as she conjures romance, her witches brew…

'Tis a very special brew,
Of 'witch' I'd like a sip or two...

Alluring, ethereal, compelling...

Whispering your name through the cypress glades...

Bill...This is like the blues and country with the element of passion woven within your words. I love the feelings you evoke with these passionate Bayou enchantments. ***Ivy Rose

Now, Bill, I do believe this is about one of the good witches.
Are you a Warlock, or a Wizard, maybe?  HeeHee!! I know
there are good ones of them, too.
Hugs,
Ethel

Oh, and like Sunnyone said, all the witches and warlocks
aren't in the bayous. They're in cities, and just  
eeeevvvverywhereeeeee!!!!

(giggles wickedly) Aha...if you think witches only come out of the bayou, you are sorely mistaken, they are in every place you least expect, BAW HAHAHA!!! (giggles) This is cute, sweet friend, love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bill, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!
