Witchy Woman
~~~
Wicked woven in midnight trance
A magic called by Shaman’s dance
Like the grip of the jungle vine
It traps and holds this heart of mine
~~~
Cauldron bubbles its evil brew
Firelight adds a witching hue
Incantations in whispered tone
Ensure that I am yours alone
~~~
In chicken bones the future read
By island princess of the dead
The pull of your ancient voodoo
A quicksand for my love of you
~~~
There in the autumn’s faint moonlight
She prances naked with delight
And the chant of her Druid art
Easily captures lustful heart
~~~
I am bound by your sorcery
You, now, the only love I see
I only hope the spells you cast
Will make the magic truly last
~~~
it’s all about the magic, isn’t it?
It should be…
Some very accurate. No chicken bones but I love the imagery 🥰
I thought this may tickle your fancy! Thanks, Harley!
I am choosing to believe this ones about me 😉
I know that nobody can cast a spell like you do! 💖
But am I a good witch or a bad witch? Or a sandwich?
You are a good witch and sometimes a bad girl…but you are never anything as ordinary as a sandwich! 🥪
You’re too good to me 🌶
Love, love, love this!!!!! 😍😍😍
Thanks Kristian! I love the voodoo you do! 💖😘
I can’t resist your voodoo either, Brad! 😘❤
Loved the poetry, as the witches mesmerize by their spells, I am mesmerized by this poem. All the elements of witchcraft are captured in an elegant way at the same time the poetry has a mystical flow. This will remain as one of my favourites.
Thanks Vinayak! I did try to add some scope by touching on more than one of the cultures of mystic arts. I appreciate all your support and good wishes!
Great poem, very rhythmic and full of great images, especially the chicken bones 🙂
Thank you, my friend! IT is not a party until there are chicken bones 😃
😆
once gain, brewing up a little magic with your words…
Thanks, Jim!
A clear case of Anima Possession! 😉
That it is, Sudra! Thanks for reading and commenting!
WOW…. I love this poem Brad… It’s magic.. it’s playful… it’s mysterious… that spell of love…
“Incantations in whispered tone
Ensure that I am yours alone”
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Thanks Gabriella! I think you are magical too!
My pleasure 🤗❤️
Love how this is both dangerous and tantalizing. Great poem, Brad.
Thank you!
I just had one of those Twilight Zone moments. About two minutes after I finished listening to Witchy Woman by The Eagles, I came to your post. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk89f7Sz5mg
Okay, that is just weird! But thanks for stopping by, Pete!
The way you weave your words is really beautiful ❤
