The Witch Spell

 

The Witch's Spell

A Wicked Witch did cast a spell.
Of Woe and Grief, to all befell
And from tales of folklore that tell
She did it well~She did it well.

She place the hex yon far and wide
Thru~each small town,and countryside
Folks sought shelter, but only cried
No Place To Hide! No Place To Hide!

Too much power this Witch possessed
The Grief-stricken folks were not blessed
Seeking Solace, they tried their best.
But could not rest~They could not rest.

Mad and Angry they now fought back
To retrieve the peace,they now lacked
They hung her to dry,on a rack
That Witch in black~That Witch in Black


Now the Dead-Witch can do no Spell
and of course their fate turned out swell
And that is that, No more to tell
They did it well~They did it well.

Bravo! This was very well done, the idea behind it was unique and the way you wrote it was definitly perfect for the idea. The only thing I'd watch out for is your rhyming. A few of those rhymes are quite simple and throw the rhytme off a bit. Other than that good job and keep at it!

This is so well done, it reminds me of those cultural tales that are passed down thru the centuries, storytelling in verse & song . . . superb musicality & the repeated refrains are so hauntingly delicious. I have always felt a kinship with these fine witchy women & your poem does their bewitching power justice (((HUGS))) Fondly Margie
