Wicked Winter Witch

   I buy Saint John’s Wort in anticipation of
   the grey, wet days to come
   I lay in a large supply of candles
   of various sizes and my favorite
   Incense-Nag Champa
                                   

    I make sure that there is dark, red wine
    several bottles, on my rack and
    a plethora of herbal teas, in my cupboard
    I have on hand enough dark chocolate and
    popcorn and books to read and
    movies on VHS & DVD

    I’ve put the down comforter on
    my bed and the flannel sheets
    I have wool socks from the Aryan
    Islands off the coast of Ireland, satin       
    Pajamas from J.C. Penney’s and a soft,
    Fuzzy, plaid robe from Bi-Mart
    (I would welcome the right warm body
    to spoon with...)

   In addition I have lots of erasable ink pens
   and yellow tablets…
   C’mon then, you Wicked Winter Witch, I am
   ready for you…
