Witch’s Brew
by Linda L. Dowd

Hee, hee, hee, my pretties!
Come here for tasty treat!
Bubbling in my cauldron,
Are goodies for you to eat!

There are slimy slugs and snails,
And lizard tongues galore.
Warts of toad, and eyes of newt,
And snouts of bristly boar!

My brew is thick and scummy,
And slick with yummy toppings!
From gobs of viper venom,
To sprinkled raven droppings.

Tails from small marsupials,
And oodles of wiggly worms.
Leechy things that suck your blood,
And lots of bugs and germs!

The broth is made from bat wings,
And bloody hearts and veins.
Chunks of bones and monster meat,
And mashed opossum brains.

Hee, hee, hee, my pretties!
Come here for tasty treat!
Bubbling in my cauldron,
Are goodies for you to eat!

I think I'll pass on the treats ... but now I'm thinking that life is short so why not. Not bad, not bad, but maybe a bit more salt.

Your words have been missed, Linda, but of course you've been busy "cooking" so we'll forgive your absence. Oh, do you eat your own food? Just wondering.

Yo dear Linda,

Now that's the kind of witches’ brew I can live with. One with no human sacrifice involved, just healthy worms, snails, and stuff.

Love Bobby

I thought the snouts were as far as you could go, but then you sprinkled in the raven droppings, and I had to admit: You make the best brew!

No thank you my dear Linda, that doesn't sound very apertising to me, I'd sooner have a big Mack, but I loved your poem.
Love you.

For you I'll make a special soup
With legs of frogs and turtle poop
A dash of poison to turn you green
Then add you to my witch tureen.

Warm Halloweenie Huggums,

P.S. I actually did record this poem with my voice and Halloween sound effects and music.
Unfortunately, for some reason, the link didn't work in my post. If you would like, I'll email you the music file from my computer.

This witch must have mighty big powers of manifestation! I was just thinking of you! ~ Not only that, I had just gone looking for this poem and couldn't find it! Then when I came back to the first page ~ There was the poem! ~ and bumped up by you! Uncanny!!!

Methinks you have psychic gifts as well, my little green friend! Would you like to be one of my familiars? hehehe

May you always be treated ~ and never tricked!
