Replying to a comment on:
~Witchcraft~ (Free verse) by Lenore
A blinding moon forsaking her light
challenged the clouds to weep for night
A scented wind wafting lavender air
blew through the locks of fire lit hair
A deep slow rhythm from a lonely drum
carried the call of a chanted hum
A shadow caressed the blessed ground
the hallowed plot that she had found
A silver blade on stone at rest
the circled star upon her breast
A censor smolders sacred weeds
the book unveiled proclaims her needs
A cup and cauldron hold their fill
the quarters called they'll tend her will
A circle drawn around this place
Magic made in sacred space
A bell rings forth the summoned wraith
yet merely tolls for another's faith
A sight for amber enchanted eyes
the salt ensures the vision dies
A Theban script with which she writes
has been transmuted and taken flight
A spell well cast its energy grounded
the power sent and intent well founded
A libation poured upon the Earth
a payment promised for rebirth
A Witch alone among the wood
raises now, her darkly hood
