That Wicked Witch and Her Wicked Ways… another one of my poems rearranged and put to a bit of music… enjoy!

That Wicked Witch and Her Wicked Ways

There’s that wicked witch working her wicked ways

Healing others with the words she says

Colored chords and candles castling light

People talk and rumors spread that she’s just not right

Casting into the heavens for dreams and wishes come true

They says she conjures and cooks up some sort of terrible brew

Misunderstood and shunned to always be alone

This wicked witch is surely evil, straight to the bone

The smiles, goodness and light, people rarely choose to notice

You see, this wicked witch has as many layers as the lotus

She protects, she heals and she cares

But all that they talk about is how she scares

Dare she own a pet, especially a cat that is black

For the stories will grow of how once she flew off into the night like a bat

Herbs hanging around the kitchen walls

Oils on the shelves with her crystal balls

There is meaning behind every tools she owns

But what they say is .. she kills animals to keep their bones

You see, they know not of what they speak

Their ignorance makes them ever so gullible and weak

This wicked witch is not what they make her out to be

She is as gentle and caring as a warm summer breeze

She follows the moon as it begins to wax and wane

She’s not afraid to dance nor sing in the rain

Her life is filled with magic in every way

Deeds for the good are done day by day

Caring for the Earth and all it’s creatures

Come, take a closer look at her features

You’ll not see a warted nose upon her face

Only a gentleness within her eyes and a smile to take its place

So, when you hear of them speak of the wicked witch and her wicked ways

Remember the words within this phrase:

Harm none .. do as ye will

For this is the motto of a witch that is not a fairytale but 100% real!

~ Judge not others by what you “think” you know…..

~ For you never know when the day will come that you’ll find yourself eating a bit of crow!
