Which Witch Is Which?
Witch, Witch, what could be your name?
"My name is the same as any of fame.
Some call me Madonna, others, Savannah;
They don't realize that I'm from Havana."
Witch, Witch, where do you reside?
"I live most anywhere that I may decide.
I prefer a house with a bat and a cat,
And a wise old owl to scare off a rat."
Witch, Witch, where are you going?
"Wherever I want; where the wind is blowing.
I fly through the rain or the hail or the snow.
The sun, moon, and stars are all friends I know."
Witch, Witch, how fly you so high?
"I straddle my broomstick way up in the sky."
Witch, Witch, what clothes do you wear?
"Black hat, robe, and boots; even black underwear."
Witch, Witch, what foods do you eat?
"Cobwebs, corn, and cabbage and even crows' feet;
As a gourmet who loves all sorts of fine food,
I slurp slick, slimy slugs when I'm in the mood."
Witch, Witch, do you like to dance?
"I rock and I roll when I have the chance;
But when in France, for romance,
I waltz, gambol and prance."
Witch, Witch, do you like to play?
"I like to play "house" and to bake pies of clay."
Witch, Witch, where do you hurry?
"I hurry to Surrey where I'm on a jury."
Witch, Witch, what have you to judge?
"Little children's costumes and all kinds of fudge."
Witch, Witch, happy Halloween!
"Same to you, my dear; you look like a queen."

"Which Witch Is Which?" A most perfect Halloween poem...
Wonderfully written!
Thank you,
Sheila
Fantastic Halloween poem.
~D~
One of the secrets of comedy is rhythm and comic verse is a very neglected form of which I am a great advocate. So I appreciated this for more reasons than most people.
BTW British witches are truly gourmet cooks, clay pies can be had any time, for their halloween feat they bake snot pies.

This was a hoot indeed.
"I slurp slick, slimy slugs when I'm in the mood."
You got me going on this line. I think I've made twenty typos typing this short review.
Well done, and in the words of the infamous prophet ...
Love and peace to you ...

"I hurry to Surrey where I'm on a jury."
OK, OK... we goths tend to hail d'Angleterre, but of course, and are less judicious the further South West you go... But this STILL sounds like one that is more like a walk in the park than a spook in the dark, Regis... what else would be expect you?! Just make sure she is sitting on Andy Turner's custodial case, and I can assure you she will turn into an absolute ANGEL! Even your "darkness" is shot-through with light, such that many of us will be applying for our broom permits just asap... !! :)) A NICE Halloween treat, Honey... unless, of course, it's a Trick!! LOL K xx
I Love It Regis Your Z Best...

'Hey kids...' the opening line to this song fits well to invite the kids to read this delightfully witty poem. Very witty Wilde, very, very witty - witch - witty - what have you done to my thought processes tonight, Regis?
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
