The novice witch

Dear Editor:

Hallo! Hallo! So sorry I'm late

I tried to find you but missed your gate.

I flew quite fast across the moon

Then I hit a tree and broke my broom.

The cat fell off and is lost in the corn.

My hat is bent and my cape is torn.

I had to walk throughout the night

As you can see I'm a sorry sight.

I'm missing a shoe but I saved my sack

While I'm limping along with a "crick" in my back.

Inside the sack are my treats for you

Frogs, snails and tails and some witches brew.

Happy Halloween!
