The Witches Read online

  *

  Closing eyes again, though in such fright,

  I prayed and hoped that I’d last out the night.

  Although I could feel it so close to my brow,

  I kept my eyes shut; it wouldn’t bother me now.

  The shadowy form passed from me that night,

  It disappeared, was gone away from my sight.

  As I rolled over, so comfy, returning to nod,

  Till the next time it happened,

  It was just me and my God.

  Last Night (part two)

  I saw an angel by my bedside last night,

  I saw a lone figure, oh what a fine sight.

  As it passed close by me, deep in the night,

  I saw a lone angel; she lit up my life.

  *

  I made not sound; I was still, not in fright,

  As I lay in my bed, in the deep of the night,

  As I watched it close by me, I longed for its light,

  To be a part of its wonder; such a glorious sight.

  *

  The shining white form, the silvery sight,

  Began to glide past me in front of my eyes.

  As I lay in bed on my right-hand side,

  The holiest of things flew past me that night.

  *

  Finally, eventually, as I watched with my eyes,

  It left, departed, was gone – how I cried.

  Although it was gone I was now oh-so-wise,

  To God’s plan for every adult and child.
