2015 Witches Tea Party

"Helena!  What ever are you doing?" I exclaim.

 

"The invitation said to throw on our best bloomers.  Well, I'm just making sure these are my best!" {cackle, cackle}

 "Hmph.... Well, I guess when you are 138 years old, you can behave any way you like."

{Snort, cackle, snort} "Ha!"

"You have something to add, Eloisa?"

 

 "138?"  {snort} "You old fool, you're at least 173, if you're a day!"

"Oh my word...you two will drive me batty."

"Aren't you ready yet, young one?"  Helena asks. 

"If you two would stop your bickering I might be able to decide which stockings and shoes to wear.  What do you think?  The white stockings and black bow boots?"

 "Perfect!" shouts Eloisa, "grab a hat, broom and let's go!"

 
"Oh dear, it looks like we are a little early for the party," says Helena when we arrive.

"No, no.  I wanted to do a bit of shopping before the party started.  We're a little low on a few things," I reply.

"Oh, star dust, I'll take a bit of that. Hmm, I'm not certain if I have any coffins left.  Maybe I should take this one, too.  Perhaps a few bottles as well, one can never have too many."

 

Amanita muscaria, they've been scarce this year. Some of those I must have, as they are very dear. 

 Oh no, someone must have cast a rhyming spell.  What will come out of my mouth, no one can tell.

 

 

In the moss garden, the fairies shed their wings.  We'll collect a few, they're good for many things.

Into my basket I'll add dragon's breath and a butterfly of death.  A skull or two and ear of troll?

  Time matters not to a witch.  Day or night, night or day, spells take place either way.

 

 

 Bags, oils, herbs and mirror.  Things a witch should keep near her.

 

I think that's all for my shopping list, now let us get on to the party, I insist!

Turn thrice around, a charm you must say, a magic password leads to party day.

 The room changes in the blink of an eye. Treats and goodies, galore.

   

 

 

 We shall eat and dance while dark sets in.  Enjoy yourself and let the magic begin!

 

Spiders, bats and crows descend.  We'll share our treats, we must be kind to our friends.  Lights turn on and candles glow. It's just so much fun, don't you know?

 

 

  Someone keeps casting a daylight spell, then turning it back to night.

 Chocolate covered crackers, yum, yum, yum!

 

Eat your fill, then go back for more.  We need to keep up our strength for casting spells.  We'll enjoy our party as long as we can.

 

 Oh my, here we are, another day has dawned.  The candles have burned down and it looks like the party has wound down.  Time to take ourselves home and get some rest. 

The flowers held up well and are so lovely aren't they?  Dahlias, snapdragons, tansy and delphinium. All my favorites!

 

  

Now if I could only find Helena and Eloisa.  There is no telling what mischief they are up to by this point.

I hope you enjoyed your visit to my offering for the 2015 Witches Tea Party hosted by Vanessa from A Fanciful Twist. Remember to visit her and all the other participants of this years party.
