Witching Encounter

When I was fishing in the ditch,

I met a toad who was a witch.

She said, “I’ll turn you green as cheese,

With hair of seaweed, eyes like peas.

Then I’ll add a spiky tail

And keep you in a dinner pail!”

I kept on fishing in the ditch

And told that toad who was a witch,

“No! I’ll turn YOU orange instead

With a carrot nose and a pumpkin head

And maybe not any feet at all

So you can’t hop but only crawl.”

“ABRACADABRA!” she chittered loudly.

“ALACAZAM!” I chanted proudly.

She slunk away with a sneaky snigger.

I was a witch, too, and I was bigger!
