The Haunting

Something wicked this way comes, Marching in to Arctic drums; Promised gift of spring succumbs To ghosts of winter past. Ice Queen reigns supreme for now, Frigid frost on frigid brow; Soon, she’ll have to take a bow, For phantoms cannot last.  

ghostly iciclesSomething wicked this way comes,

Marching in to Arctic drums;

Promised gift of spring succumbs

To ghosts of winter past.

Ice Queen reigns supreme for now,

Frigid frost on frigid brow;

Soon, she’ll have to take a bow,

For phantoms cannot last.

    Wonderfully done, Melody! This is a fun one to read aloud!

      Cool! Thanks Debbie! Have you seen our Caddo friend around lately???

    Oh, she looks wicked!

    1. melodylowes

      She’s just grouchy. Blizzards for Easter tend to make her a bit ‘cross’. 😉

      1. Gallivanta

        She needs a hot cross bun, perhaps.

    Definitely a haunting.
    It’s looking good now though.
    Hope this time winter doesn’t impose on spring.

      We have a wicked snowstorm here today! *sigh* Ah, well. A few more mucky days with rubber boots, I guess.

      1. RoSy

        Oh goodness. YUK!
        Stay warm & hang in there.
        I see the sun shining here now. So it’s movin’ on up. 🙂

        My daughter is flying in late tonight from a school trip to Europe – I hope her plane can land! It’s a wild one out there!
