This weeks potluck theme is
Magic & Miracles, Wonder & Wizardry
Magic & Miracles, Wonder & Wizardry
Cold dark moor
Spider and Rat
Scrying over crystal ball
Witch and Cat
Fairie lights lantern
Gnarled bough of tree
Frog chasing Goblin
By pond on knee
All wonder and magic...
Of spell being cast
Call forth the blessings...
Of ancients past
Crone and sidekick
Swirling misted hill
Muttered incantation
Bend ones will
Bubbled brewing potion
Cauldron over fire
Chanting of ingredients
Flame grow higher
Eye of newt
Slime of snail
Festering fungi
Earwig tail
Fang of snake
Wing of bat
Fruit of nightshade
Powdered Gnat
Stir counter clockwise
Stir by three
Spirits whisper wisely
Come now to me
Mystical imaginings
Fortunes told
Cross my palm my pretty
For just a piece of gold

Agree with Annie, it's nicely written. Very occult... to mention Harry Potter would be demeaning because the quality of your actual poetry, when I look with an aesthetic eye at the words and their juxtaposition, is high. Who cares what the theme is
ReplyDeleteCheers!
