The March Witch's Bargain
Spooky Poetry for the Soul
This is for Mikeydred's March Prompt
Be careful whom you buy from! Michelle Liew
*******************************************************
Old Aggie sits where shadows walk,
In tattered clothes, and bloodshot eyes--
She offers swift trades widely sought
Buys that drift with the wind's cold sighs.
*******************************************************
"Choose wisely child, for hearts do bleed
In March's storms, the unwise plead."
A young girl bought -- her thought, a game---
By winter, her soul was Aggie's to claim.
