The Potion
The witches gathered
for the final examination
A potion of
strength and honor
Headaches came and
they began to ponder
what ingredients should
they use
Sword?
No
Trophy?
No…
Banana?
Definitely NO…
How about the gorilla out there?
Sounds cool…
How are we going to do it?
Let’s go to where the wild things are…*grin*
Not a bad idea for us…let’s do it!
Darkness fall and
off the witches went into the
forbidden forest of darkness
a forest that will give
you unexpected encounters
and the jackpot got hit spot on
They came for them
as they run the hell out of their lives
while one was smart to notice
that flying was the
key to survival
with her wonderful
magical broom
Don’t mess
with the
wild things
if you don’t have a “smart’” way out
The witch giggled and had the last laugh

Sometimes our mind can be really simple when trying to get away or run away from something, but yet if we can stop and think for a moment, there might be even more ways of doing it than what we think. Even in the midst of trouble, when there a will, there is always a way, And only you can find it^^~

Warmest Salad
Luke @ WordSalad
it is deadly but it will never betray the faith it holds within itself, a cover for its own protection to never let anyone break the walls =O
Now that’s darn funny! I love a humourous flow!
Powerful poem…

Very whimsical! And that witch certainly was clever!
An experimental approach without a recipe. Only one witch was ready for the outcome. A fun read and a good way to start the day.
One should always remember to have a good escape plan … when messing around with darkness. Very enjoyable read. I love all things magical.
In contrast to a lot of magical conversations the tone of your poem is rather casual. I’m wondering, are your witches new age witches?
Ancient kind who doesn’t really put much thinking on their minds, I guess=P
A cheery way to start my day– thanks!
Glad to hear that, have a wonderful week ahead^^!
this i gotta say- i really love you block manga and i love those fonts colours you use on your poems..
Bingo!Sometimes in our panic we forget the easiest way out!
Just lovely,though a bit scary!Don’t want witches running after me!
The potions seem as spells cast of the witch in her greatest journey, the one into the dark forest.
while one was smart to notice
that flying was the
key to survival
with her wonderful
magical broom…
for witches, flying is magical escape indeed.
I read every word of it, beautiful story,
well done.
