Two Poems by Barry FentimanΒ Hall
Get Broomstick, Fly! Sally buys her broomstick in SainsburysBesom style, willow twigs and twine,Ash handle smooth in costume fingers Long mustard fleece worn, borrowedlike an animal Belt hanging downto cartoon thin calves shaped for flight Sensible shoes sparkle at the heelsThat rhinestone clickmaking everyday magicspells that aren't just for Halloween Her long hair a highlight, windswept…
Some people think 'spooky' is a season, but at Mugwort we appreciate ghosts, witches, and all things otherworldly all year round.
If you do too, please enjoy today's poems - 'Get Broomstick, Fly!' and 'A Ghost Writes' - by Barry Fentiman Hall.
