TREATS NO TRICKS

It's Halloween with Goodie bags to fill and costumes to press. Pumpkins will be lit for our ghostly guests. Witches and goblins will make their way to my door for their delicious reward.

The Garden Witch

I was walking in the garden

when I heard a funny sound.

I ducked behind the bushes

to take a look around.

There standing in the marigolds,

glancing here and there, with

magic dust on her robes

and long black hair, swirling all around

and drifting in the breeze, stood a little witch

as small as small could be.

She gathered blossoms from the pansies

and from the roses too, lots and lots of morning glories

with which to make a stew. She stirred the little pot

with the help of bumble bees.

She turned her head and gave

a smile to me. "I am very, very

busy, so busy, can't you see? I have

to make the candy corn, witches punch

and fairy tea. Then decorate the trees,

the meadow and the hall. It's

Halloween you know, time for

the Witches Ball!
