There is a swamp that know.
And it is said that is where the Swamp Witch grows.
Where they throw the Halloween Jack O' Lanterns after they
turn black and start to rot.
They rot away and decay
until all that is left is the stem.
A Halloween memory and that is all that you've got.
It is said from the stem that
the Swamp Witch grows.
Those that have seen her emerge
head first went missing.
Rumor has it that they disappeared.
Where to nobody knows!


My friend Suzie sent me a whole box of pumpkin stems. I thought of making weird and twisted creatures. But, what popped into my head was the tale of the Swamp Witch. I could write a whole creepy story about them. Maybe I will stay tuned. More Swamp Witches to come.
