Why is the morning so dark...a free verse poem?

There. I've done it...and it will not come undone.

So deck the halls and all that.
What's Halloween without a witch?
If ever a wonderful witch there was...
But spells will not cease, nor enchantments,
I would not want them to.
"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner", case in point.
Didn't you know? Didn't you guess?
Yes, it is, and no, it isn't.
Some things are best left unsaid,
undone,
unafraid.

My knees hurt, and there's no spell for them.
Dance around the dark tree...
for me.

So many references and hints of things to come, I enjoyed a short walk in Witch World.

Tender, well written, slice of life vignette.

She asked why was the morning so dark?
Because the light is still sleeping he told her.
But where does it sleep? She asked him,
Why it sleeps behind the darkness he said.
Does light only come out when darkness tires?
You ask many questioned of your grandpa,
go to sleep now.

I can know longer dance in the dark, but it still fascinates me. I enjoyed the various references in this.
