Amidst the fog and full moon light

A house glows red with demonic delight

Terror reigns from deep within

Fills the air with a piercing din

Spirits roam the darkened grounds

Shrilling, shrieking, sounds abound

Horror shakes the shrouded land

That hides this fortress, once so grand

Haunting, against the black of night

Demons feast on earthly fright

Perched up high, upon a branch

In the forest, dark and scary

The owl waits for his next prey

Though his mistress, quite contrary

She sits inside, in black of night

By the window, where she eyes

Creatures scurrying about the grass

And much to her surprise

One comes closer, just enough

So the door, she opens wide

Watches as it makes its way

Unsuspecting, now inside

The cauldron boils and bubbles

As the witch begins to chortle

“Trick or treat, my tasty one

It’s time for my nightly mortal”

A spirit held within a book
She wished upon a dream
Scattering dandelion seeds
Like a pixie, she did scheme

Page by page, twas magic
She made them dance in rhyme
From fantasy to tragic
Every word was quite sublime

So, when the pages filled
And no more could be contained
Another flower did she pick
To spread the seeds, again

Friday Fantasy ~ Seasons Turn Again and Again – #poetry

A little bit of pixie dust

Lay scattered, on the ground

Magically, the trees would change

Their colors, quite profound

A mystical elfin treasure

Mother Nature put on land

She’d color the world in a beautiful way

Autumn, she said, must be grand!

But in order for this to happen

No color could this sprite contain

She must leave it behind in the forest

Until winter came calling again

It was only then she could reclaim

The beauty she left behind

Waiting for autumn to return once more

Was all that she had on her mind

Red as the crimson, in the trees

In a dress she wears, so grand

The ghost of autumn, unveils herself

As leaves that fall upon land

She scatters her earthly presence

Throughout the forests, serene

And leaves behind a masterpiece

No imagination has ever seen

She blends as one with nature

Tis her time to shine, it’s true

The spirit of seasons changing

She’s the colors of the world, anew
