Little Black Pot of Plenty (Ghazal)

by Red Velvet   Oct 24, 2009


The three witches went walking; as the sun went setting
Dragging their spell cauldron; the little black pot of plenty

All Hallow's Eve; a ceremonious occasion
Stir tempest of rage in the little black pot of plenty

Throw in a corpse finger, batwings, and short-bodied beetles
Ingredients in the little black pot of plenty

Red ribbon sparks fly out; Velvet flames lick the night air
Dare you to drink from the little black pot of plenty.

* My attempt at a Ghazal

    "Spooky and eerie - Perfect for Halloween!
    If I may make a suggestion - Halloween is a contraction of (All) Hallow's evening - So Halloween eve would actually be October 30th. You could change it to All Hallow's Eve -another name for Halloween"
    I found this comment insightful and spot on. I'm going to use it.
