Noises from the Witch's Broom
The broom goes BROOM! BROOM! BROOM!
The cat goes VROOM! VROOM! VROOM!
The wand goes WHIZZ! WHIZZ! WHIZZ!
The cauldron goes FIZZ! FIZZ! FIZZ!
The hat goes FLOPERTY! FLOPERTY! FLOP!
The owl goes FLAPERTY! FLAPERTY! FLAP!
The witch says ZOOM! ZOOM! ZOOM!
Let’s go to the MOON! MOON! MOON!
The cat says NO! NO! NO!
It’s too far to GO! GO! GO!
Why don’t we POP! POP! POP!
To the SHOPS?
The cat goes VROOM! VROOM! VROOM!
The wand goes WHIZZ! WHIZZ! WHIZZ!
The cauldron goes FIZZ! FIZZ! FIZZ!
The hat goes FLOPERTY! FLOPERTY! FLOP!
The owl goes FLAPERTY! FLAPERTY! FLAP!
The witch says ZOOM! ZOOM! ZOOM!
Let’s go to the MOON! MOON! MOON!
The cat says NO! NO! NO!
It’s too far to GO! GO! GO!
Why don’t we POP! POP! POP!
To the SHOPS?

About the Writer
Christine R Milne
Christine is a poet who loves writing haiku. Some of them have been published in journals and anthologies. Luckily other poems pop into her head. Most of them are for children which is not surprising as she enjoys being a teacher and a mother. Also, creating poems that connect with a child’s view of the world is really special. This is helped by her favourite hobby, trying not to eat too much chocolate.
