The Dim Witch and the Wizard’s Watch

Aha the Wizard opened the door; he had to look, he wasn’t sure
The field was empty, no one around; the field was silent, not one sound.
The breeze was gentle, the night was dark – it was definitely quiet in the park.

He turned around and walked back in and was met with such an eerie grin.
The Dim Witch stood, hands on hips, and asked “Well, did you see the Moon’s eclipse?”
”My Dear,” said Aha, noting she was keen, ”I was looking once more for Halloween

”This watch I have, is broken you see, it always tells me quarter past three.
”The date’s wrong too, it’s set to June, December 10th is the eclipse of the Moon.
”October 31st is the date I want, the date we can visit our little haunt”

“So it’s not yet the time to go?” The Dim Witch really needed to know.
Not that she was in her party dress, and her hair was such a mess,
But she needed time to cast a spell; for what, for who, for why… only time will tell…

I love ‘only time will tell’ … it offers such a abundance of conclusions to any thoughts..Sir Aquatom… and so long as the hairs straight.. we can cope with anything…(or I can… 😉 ) xPenx
(Aha hasn’t been to a magic-watch mender then? Times a ticking for the Big Night)

  Pen, with the Dim Witch only time will tell doesn’t really offer any kind of conclusion, but it does provide an abundance of questions; the first one being is the hair straight?
  Aha wouldn’t give any thought that a magic watch mender would even exist… he has loads of helpers, and they are just as… mixed up… as he is!
  Thanks for commenting, Lady P!

It’s a wonder Halowe’en happens, the number of the darker brethren who are unprepared, or arrive early, or late 😀

  Especially, Kate, with this lot. Useless isn’t normally a compliment, but it is in their case… luckily, there are others of the same ilk who are better prepared. Halloween’s safe for this year…

  Thanks, Andro. I like the mysticism of Halloween, and thought that I’d make a bit of an effort this year with a few different posts linked to the time. I must say that nothing comes in the way of my sleep (well, apart from my alarm and a few other things…)
