Witches 

Wonderful world of witchcraft

Incantations and spells
Toad`s poison and spider's webs
Cauldron brewing on the open fire
Haunting cackles can be heard
Ever ready to cast their spells
Spooky Halloween is here

Thought I would share this poem I wrote ten years ago.  I love walking though misty mornings, hearing different sounds before to I spy what made them.  The landscape comeing into view as I walk along. 

Hope you like this one

Through Misty Woods

When everything

just gets to me

there's this place

I escape to

along the path

through misty woods

Tall trees stand there

disappearing

into the mists

leading to peace

my haven there

through misty woods

Shadows abound

mysteries here

somewhere to hide

no one would know

here I can walk

through misty woods

These mossy trees

standing in line

leading me on

along the track

to my escape

through misty woods

As autumn arrives

trees dress in their finest coats

full of bright colours

they don`t need to compete

with each other

they just dance in the breeze

and enjoy autumn`s parade

Paw 

Deep with my dreams

a paw reaches in

drawing me into the day

determined purrs heard

I slowly open my eyes

in a dreamy sort of way

nuzzling wet nose

pushes into my face

someone wants to play

hello sweet kitty

it`s times to get up

let have some fun today

Nature`s Mysteries

Nature is extraordinary 

full of textures and colours

magical rainbow stone walls

shrouded in mists of intrigue

 surprises around each corner

taking your breathe away

this dark circular cavity

seen partway up a blue cliff

door way to a mysterious world

calling out to be explored

a journey to the unknown

is this real or an illusion?

Tasty Treat Time

Sat in the morning sunshine

beautiful bushy fluffed tail

held high with confidence

relaxing by a sturdy trunk

nibbling on his tasty nut

among the autumn leaves

not bothered by distractions

letting the world pass by

this squirrel enjoys his treat

Stormy Times Ahead

Stormy times ahead so...

batten down the hatches

stock up the cupboards

then seal all the latches

cold winds blowing

snow is coming

hard rain lashing

stormy times ahead

block up the doorways

check all windows as well

logs ready for the fire

this`ll be the storm from hell

windows rattling

snow is pitching

rivers swirling

stormy times ahead

huddled near the fire place

winds howling all around

settled in for the duration

as the storm hits the ground

winds so freezing

snow now falling

fireside blazing

Stormy times are here !

Elegant Reflection

down by the lake waterside

a quiet spot near the island

two slumbering beauties

synchronised sleeping

reflected through the ripples

heads ticked under one wing

resting on only one leg

creating elegant reflections
