A WITCH CALLED MABEL

By Josie Whitehead

Witch Called Mabel (A)

Yes, I must agree with you,
    It is a funny name,
But Mabel’s not so funny 
    When she plays her little games.

​

She likes to hide the things you need
    And watches whilst you search.
She hid my brother's football boots
    And then the parrot's perch.

​

You always know when she's around
     For Mabel leaves a scent,
But she never leaves enough of it
    To discover where she went.

​

One day I'll catch that pesky witch
     And put her in a cage,
And I'll laugh and laugh until I cry
     To see her in a rage.

​

But until that day I’ll warn you all
     That Mabel's running free,
So smell the air and be aware
     Of all you hear and see.
