What is that noise,what can I hear?
It echoes round,first far, then near
The mountains tremble with the sound
The animals all run underground
A river of water rushes by
Yet not a raincloud in the sky
It comes from deep inside the wood
I'd go and look there, if I could
But in the wood there lives a witch
A woman with an evil twitch
She has the spells to say a verse
That will surround you with a curse
A little doe stands by a tree
He lifts his head and looks at me
Please help the lady, he implores
Into the silence, between roars
Very slowly, I walk in
Move towards that awful din
Where it comes from,I know not
Then I find the very spot
A lady, old, sits by the fire
Noise of wails gets even higher
What is it witch, what can I do ?
What is it makes you feel so blue
She lifts her face and wipes a tear
I've cast these spells for many a year
But I am sad and all alone
No one dares come near my home
Come on now witch,please don't be sad
Being good is not so bad
Helping others is the key
Raise a smile and you'll be free
She lifts her head and smiles at me
A fairy flies out from a tree
She kisses lady on the hand
And sprinkles her with grains of sand
A puff of smoke and there she stands
Beauty queen of fairyland
In a forest, not a wood
No more evil, only good

Wonderful you too have found sympathy with a poor witch. In my stories I have to make them evil but inone of mypoems I have written a tribute to those poor old ladies that go out into the woods looking for roots and herbs ,flowers etcetera. Lovely poem Ros greetings from bernard. |
