A Magick Potion for Halloween

.

A dash of desperation

A pinch of pride

A cup of kindness

And a soupcon of snide

.

A spoon of sincerity

A boxful of care

A few fine finesses

And a handful of clown

.

A phial of pragmatism

A grasp of geek

A slop of stubbornness

And a lump of klutz

.

An ounce of intellect

A shard of empathy

A bucketful of mistakes

And a smidge of steel

.

An eyeful of twinkles

An eimer of vodka

A speck of patience

And a yard of chocolate

.

A foil of failure

An inch of ingenuity

A puff of bravery

And a page of bookworm.

.

A smile of pure woman

A miracle of molecules

A mind full of questions

And a shoeful of dreams.

.

.

Hurl into the Great Cauldron, and blend it with care.

For the Devil is waiting; for us to fail there.

.

Go hubble, go bubble, go toil and go trouble,

’til the Hallowe’en mist clears, and the moon shines above it.

.

Watched over by the Ragged Ravens, under the Living Tree…

that’s the magick potion, for the spell of me.

.

Happy Halloween to you, one and all!
