Witch - haiku


reviled stoned condemned
burnt alive at the stake, yet
wise strong powerful

hands that know magic
heart that understands mysteries
soul, ever gentle

beautiful goddess
that witch in every woman
divine feminine

    Together, all three show the image and the re-imagining of it. Somewhere in all of is both the kind and the scary reside. Nice that you condensed the power f three into so revealing a poem.
