Happy Hallowe'en from the StormSpinner! =]

Poem Artwork

Eye of newt and toe of frog,
wool of bat and tongue of dog,
adder's fork and blind worm's sting,
lizard's leg and owlet's wing
for a charm of powerful trouble
like a Hell broth ... boil and bubble.

- William Shakespeare

(That's Willie's old recipe.
Here's the new and improved one ...)

Rising cloud and lightning's volts!
The howl of a thunderbolt!
Rain and hail, and all things wind,
stirred and stirred until it's spinned ...
ain't seen nothin' like a StormSpinner's spell ...
look at the sky, and you're lookin' at Hell.

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (10/28)

LOL! You spin quite a yarn there Karla. There is nothing scarier than bad weather. But you make bad weather sound good. Only a poet could do that. ~ Sara

That picture look like my mood nowadays...
I don't need that storm to scare me, just a few thoughts.
But for all means, keep indoors, warm, with a hot Irish coffee to make all those germs happy.
