Hocus Pocus

Some more Halloween fun :)

  

Hocus pocus

Toil and trouble

You sly little witch

It’s plain to see

That you cast a spell on me.

Setting my soul a flame

Till I am down on my knees

Collecting the ashes

and arrange into

a perfect circle.

 

You did it without

Any black magic or potion

For within that cauldron

Was something more powerful.

With a pinch of enchanting beauty

With a mix of wicked charm,

Toss in a smidge of seductive charisma

And finish it off with a piece of golden heart.

 

Never has a curse

Been more alluring

Nor the darkside

More attractive

Till the day you made me

Your adoring warlock.

Very nice one here Cowboy! I loved the imagery inside.. The lightness that flowed straight off the paper.. This had a different feel than most of your others, kind of like your piece on the rain.. (LOVED THAT) Ooops.. LOL
This by far was a treasure and shows your multi talents in more ways than one.. Great job!

A Halloween admission? How appropriate and how wonderfully put together.

'You did it without Any black magic or potion For within that cauldron Was something more powerful. '

Somehow I think you had fun with this post or else you have a very special muse!

I think this is really clever. Very flirtatious and it flowed really well. It was an enjoyable read!

This can go two ways ... dark or light. I see the light side. :-) Happy love story like Harry Potter. I love HP. Wouldn't it be awesome if you could make people love you? Well, maybe not ... but sometimes I think about it.

I like the imagery in your piece and the powerful wording you chose.

A fun piece. At the end of the first stanza, though, you switch tenses. "Till I am down on my knees Collecting the ashes and arrange into a perfect circle," doesn't make sense. Maybe "arranging them?"

This is such a cute, fun piece and yet still shows great emotion and imagery. Shows your amazing talent as usual! Great poem for the enchanting month of October :)

dark imagery, but a sweet message lying beneath. i love this piece. it does seem like some people just have that magical element that keeps others entranced. a playful & darkly creative write!
