A Witch with a Twitch


Werewolves howl through the night.
 A cauldron bubbles in a nearby house.
A witch cackles and  an owl hoots.
"So much loot, so little time."
The witch is determined.
Her nose twitches
"It is almost done. And soon all
the candy will be mine."


She cackles louder,
she wants all the candy in the world
too make the best Halloween Brandy.

Suddenly, the bubbles simmer
and the green light glimmers.
Her potion is done.
She is ready for some fun.

She walks near the door,
and grabs her broom.
Where she flies into the darkest, gloomiest night of them all.
Halloween.

The scene is magical and frightful.
She is terrifying. Little kids scream.
All critters that are small and innocent hide.

The witch has found her candy.
Her Brandy will be the best.
She flies back towards the western sky.

When she is home,
she pours the candy in.
At first it smells awful,
like a corpse.

But then it gets better,
so much better, that the witch wants to write a letter.
But wait! She must try it first.

And it is  the best.
It is so good, that she hopes that
she doesn't go into cardiac arrest  with
all the candy and brandy.

So to stop,  she hops back on her
broom,
and flies back into the air.
and cackles at the moon.

Then all the creatures of the night,
follow her glowing light
into her  little cabin
where they party all the night long.
Because at a witch's house,
where a cauldron bubbles,
that is when you know that Halloween is near.


and the scene a spectacular sight to see.
