Happy Halloween

Over on Mummy Mishaps, Jenny set up a little linky for 'Halloween Me'. I had so much fun with this! Check out PicMonkey if you would like to do your own before Halloween is all over.

The Last Witch in Nantwich

Her eyes are black. She owns a broom.

I've seen her in a pointy hat.

I found a witch-knot in her room,

And sometimes, in the evening gloom,

When corners fade, and shadows bloom,

I've caught her talking to the cat.

My mum's a witch, I should have guessed

That morning, when I found the toad.

It looked a bit like Mr Best

Who used to live across the road.

The kids were all afraid of him,

But now, they say, he's gone for good,

He used to argue with my mum

He never really understood.

My mum's a witch, a wicked witch,

I've seen her in that pointy hat.

On moonlit nights, she rides a broom,

She keeps a witch-knot in her room,

And last night, in the evening gloom,

When corners fade, and shadows bloom,

I caught her talking to the cat
