Christmas Wish for the Southern Witch by Michael Crawford Oh, blessed be Ms Christmas Eve I'd like to wish a spell from thee Please cleanse the souls of mortal man Heal the wombs of wound, ma'am Protect the youth from lust and greed But fill their void of Christmas need Cradle birth and bless its life Flood the earth with Southern light Stir a cauldron with words of verse Prove the universe can cure a curse Wave the wand of soulful song Ask southern souls to sing along A symphony if you please Of peace and feast and melodies Of gift giving gifts of giving dreams With starlit skies of moonlit beams Touching hearts internationally Even those who don't believe Those who won't or can't conceive For they are those who truly need But most of all I beg of thee Hold me close to my family Grant me please this Christmas wish To you with love...Ms Southern Witch |
Michael Crawford is a 30-something husband and father. He has been

Crawford was born in Oklahoma but was raised all across the Southern states, finally stopping in Virginia (Hampton Roads) until graduation and then making his way to New Orleans. He currently does live performances for junior highs, high schools and colleges. He is well on his way to making poetry
a career. Keep your eyes and ears open--you'll see him one day.
