The GW*

Well, she looks like a witch,

Her pointed nose does twitch.

As she frowns upon the grocery list,

Then scrunches in a timely twist.

 

Bidding her straw broom,

Which she doth groom.

Hovers away into the gloom,

Over a pond she doth loom.

 

To frogs, rats, snakes and slime,

Quoth she, "All in good time!!"

Soon they'll be no room,

For the impending doom.

 

Her cauldron happily hissing,

As she adds to the seething,

Her black cat begins meowing,

After the rats, he begins running.

 

Slowly cooling the putrid portion,

She applies the lovely lotion.

The moles, warts and silver hair,

Disappear into thin air.

 

Her velvet apparel now lace,

Not a blemish does one trace.

Fondling her silky Siamese,

She heads home with ease.

 

To the little candy castle,

Awaiting Hansel and Gretel.
