Who Am I?

Who Am I?

A Poem by Nancy Lee Shrader

Haiku Who Am I?

See my striped stockings

 

Bet you can’t guess who I am

In your wildest dreams

 

 

I’m the wicked witch

Dorothy just stole my slippers

Now they’re on her feet

 

 

What’s a witch to do?

I’ll call upon my sister

Get ruby slippers

 

 

They all think I’m dead

In for rude awakening

I’ll set her on fire

 

 

With my sister’s help

That snip of a girl won’t win

I’m wicked, you know

 

 

Listens to Glenda

Follow the yellow brick road

The forest of doom

 

 

Better not scarecrow

Fire ball burns all it touches

You insides will burn

 

 

Tin man you will rust

No oil will save you from me

Thump thump thump, no heart!

 

 

Lion has no roar

Has no courage to fight me

You should run and hide

 

 

Wonderful Wizard

Great wizard is a big joke

Sister, do them in

 

 

 

Sleep little Dorothy

Poppies have nice aroma

Now who made it snow

 

 

I’ll get you for that

Glenda, you won’t outwit me

The slippers are mine

 

 

 

Monkeys go your way

Bring back Dorothy and her dog

She has met her match

 

 

Scarecrow thinks it out

Tin man guided by his love

Hear the lion roar

 

 

Water puts out fire

Oh what a world, what a world

Sister we’re melting
