Witches Are An Endangered Species ~*Marge Tindal*~ I gaze into the mirror and what do I see ? Warts, when I snort, looking back at me. I attempt a coquettish smile, and what next do I see ? Spears sticking out where my teeth used to be ! A witch, a witch, that's what I've become. Moss growing on my wrinkles, my face showing I've succumbed. My black heart is heavy-laden, for I can clearly see I am no longer a maiden. Shake me, beat me, shoot me with an arrow. Life as I know it is over, the path seems so narrow. Let me crawl into the swamp. This life is too much for me. Oh, let this witch be done. Put me out of my misery ! *Just feeling a little witchy this morning !  ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Think yourself lucky - hop on a broom stick and fly, also if you want to turn Ron into a toad, He'd be able to have a 'croak' while keeping this place undercontrol . Thanks a lot Marge, your ever an inspiration to us all and very fitting considering the short while to Haloween (you do celabrate it over there don't you ?) . Loved it . L.of.L. Tom . Don't try, do or do not, there is no try . - Master Yoda - |

Marge if you're a witch then it's the good one!!! Bravo, I really like this, it's obviously bewitching, and full to the brim of sorcery and magic. (Well that's as far as my sleepy brain can take me, not an ideal attitude to take to work is it.) Really love this Marge, it's so great. Take care, Marsha  |

Of course you're a witch! I see you as Elizabeth Montgomery, and she was some beautiful witch! So twitch!!! "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |

someone said it earlier, and i don't think you could EVER have a black heart! a little bit of the Salem vibe to go with breakfast, eh? i think this was very nice. it seems i joined an endangered spieces... do we get grant money from the EPA? I am reminded of the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?" |

Marge, I can't believe you told people this..! Now their going to know you live on a secret reserve in South America in a RV. By the way, how did you escape..? Writing isn't just something I do, it's something I am. To write of feelings that touch all hearts in some manner is my delight. -Marge Tindal |

I always knew there was something special about you beside your poetry. *smile* anytime you want to get together and mix up a spell, just hop on your broom and fly on over to Kansas... |
