This week Michael asks us to venture into a Fairy Story around the theme of The Witches Garden.

Sophia’s Garden
Beyond the broken fence post
and far beyond the wall
there is a tiny garden
where witches come to call.
If you are to come here
bring food and water too
you may never leave this place
the witches wait for you.
Sophia stood before the fence. She knew the rhyme; her mother had been saying it to her since she could remember. She just didn’t know if it was true or just one of those tales that someone starts to make someone else scared. The one thing Sophia couldn’t make sense of though is the fact that there was a little garden right on the other side of the fence in their yard. If it was only a scary story, why did their yard fit the story so well. Sophia just stood there, staring, contemplating whether she walk over to investigate or not.
