Halloween Witch

It was too bright so I flipped off the light switch.
And there in the dark stood the Halloween Witch.
She looked at me with big eyes of blue.
I threw something at her, I think it was a shoe.
The witch flew away on her broom.
At the speed of light all we heard was ZOOM!

    This is perfect for this contest and quite a nice piece from one so young, especially since you wrote it at the tender age of 5! Keep penning my young poet!
    Thanks for sharing and entering!

    Tyler this was a great little story-poem. It seems that you are a natural talent, just like your mom. Very well crafted work of art. I love Halloween, it's my oldest son's birthday. He's a real big boy now, he is 30. Keep writing LittleBrother!

    This is very entertaining, a well told tale! Your rhymes are very good, and the meter is pretty good, too. I really liked the way you used the same letter for "big eyes of blue". I enjoyed this, you have written a nice poem. Thanks for entering our contest.

    A perfect short children's piece. It's fantastic. LittleBrother, you amaze me, having this much a way with words at the age of five.

    Very good young man!

    I don't think it's too short at all; a poem that ends in ZOOM should be short I can't wait to read this to my boys in the morning. Great job!

    I'm glad you liked his poem, I'm his mom, I wanted to tell you that it's short because he was only five when he wrote this. Thanks for reading.

    perhaps the odor of a shoe recently vacated was enough to sweep her offf her feet and fleeing to the ozone where there is little to smell but the leftover unbreathable exhaust of man....hopefully she did not put a curse on you.....and I will definetly shoe away any witch i see in the same befooting manner...lol..Artis

    This is very cute, and I wish it was a little longer perhaps. But I could definitely see this in a children's book, with a nicely pencilled sketch to go along with it. Cute!
