Hello to everyone who may see this post. I have stopped with this blog for the reason that I started running out of interesting things to say here. I have recently started a new blog in which I will post many of the fictional creative writing pieces I have and will make in the near future. I hope you join me there.

Ending A Chapter

Hello Everyone! My oh my have I been busy. I am unfortunately so busy that I have decided I need to cut out some stuff out of my life. My life has been picking up and this year I am determined to get out there and live life to the fullest. I want to grasp at every moment and take away as much as I can from it. I want to share my life with other people and do more! It's time for me to leave the old behind. It is a new year. I will miss everyone who has come to know me through this blog. I will be checking my e-mail on this blog regularly so if you want to talk to me you can send me one. As for the writing contest. I'm sorry but I am ending this chapter of my blogging life and starting a new one. I'm still a witch and still a writer. I'm just trying to move in a new direction.

Below I will share the poems which people submitted for the contest:

Snow
Pure white
Soft and cold
Falling down
Here comes the snow

Making piles
looks so furry
Getting windy
let's go, hurry

Cold and blustery
Wonderland
More snow
than I can stand

Cozy warm
in my bed
like it in my home
looking out instead

Kim
(The Wiccan Life)

Esotre ~
The snow has all melted
And winter has gone,
Now Nature is singing
Springs’ most beautiful song;
As we honor the Goddess -
The Devine Eostre,
While she breathes her life
Into the birds and the bees;
She's fertile and loving
Ancient Mother is she
From the youngest child
To the oldest tree
~ Lady Caer Morganna

Putting the Witch in a Box

I often feel as if I am constantly putting the witchy side of myself in a box in order to get things done and spend time with friends and family. I need pack that part of myself away and only when the time is right take the witch out to play. Is it suppose to be this difficult? Why does it seems like being a witch is further complicating my life and holding me back when it should be moving me forward? I especially feel that I have trouble getting close to people and let them fully know my soul. I love being a witch but often I feel ties me too much to another world. I almost wish currently that I could strip myself of the witch and change into a more normal and relatable person. Have any of you felt this way and/or have any advice for me? I would much appreciate any input.

I feel as if I am Alice when she is trapped in the house as she keeps growing and growing and growing.

Contest Update!

Thank you to the two people who have sent in their poems! I know it is a busy time for everyone so I'm not trying to pry but if anyone else would like to send in a poem then you have about 2 weeks left to do it. It doesn't need to be any specific kind of poem. Send one in even if you don't consider yourself a "good" writer. It's just a fun little contest so don't be shy! I hope to see more entries soon and feel free to ask an questions you may have. I would also appreciate any suggestions you have.

Edit: Sorry Everyone! I totally miscalculated the date that the opening for poetry entries closes. It is the 17th which is 2 weeks from now. I hope everyone is having fun preparing for Yule.

Anastasia: Once Upon A December

I absolutely love the movie Anastasia! It is such a good tale and has some really awesome songs in it! This is a clip of my favorite scene from it. I just find this part so hauntingly beautiful whenever I rewatch it. I know that this videos timing is a little off while she is singing but I really wanted the actual scene to show you all so I chose this one from the other possiblilities.

The Legend of the Snowflake Pixies

There are pixies living on a fluffy cloud
between the earth and the sky.
In winter they work swiftly to enshroud
the earth with snow piled high.
Without being seen, for they are not proud
but rather humble and shy,
they always begin to whisper aloud
where to go as into the air they fly.

You see in the past they vowed
that every raindrop the Sky Lady did cry,
for she was know to sadly sough,
they would catch after falling from her eye.
But the tears they caught started to crowd
that rather little cloud making one pixie sigh
then all the pixies were gleefully wowed
for in the place of the tear a crystal did lie.
