For this magical party I crafted words into a poem,
which was inspired by the following:
1. The episode of Bewitched about Tabitha and a polka dot elephant
2. The conjoined twins from American Horror Story: Freak Show
3. The photo of model Dovima with Elephants
4. The song Elephant Elephant by Evelyn Evelyn
4. The song Elephant Elephant by Evelyn Evelyn
Tabitha and the Elephants
Tabitha went to the animal park to see the famous pachyderm pair,
And she thought them being tied at each other's side wasn't fair
So she twitched and separated the two
But when she saw that made them blue,
She twitched them back together again
Realizing that way they'd always have a friend
Then she flew through the rest of the park,
Pairing animals like Noah for his Ark.
Tabitha's mom, Samantha, is my favorite fictional witch.

I love the diverse sources of inspiration for this...nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI love your poem Holly!
ReplyDeleteI'm not entering your wonderful giveaway, as I already have so many e-books to get through, but my favourite witch, at the moment, is Bellatrix Lestrange (Helena Bonham Carter ~ Harry Potter)
Have a perfect weekend!
Now I want to watch every single show (episode) and then read your poem again. Many times. Maybe read it to others, too. So that they, too, can remember that our weird is what makes us who we are.
ReplyDeleteYou go, Tabitha! :) My favorite fictional witch is Camille from Yasmine Galenorn's Otherworld series.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say that Samantha is my favourite fictional witch too! I desperately wanted to be able to wiggle my nose and make magic happen when I was a little kid. To be honest, I still do! ;D
ReplyDeleteAunt Clara, who is standing next to the elephant in the pic, is one of my favourite 'Bewitched' characters too! She was adorable! I've got the entire series on DVD. Two of the cats I had as a kid were called Samantha and Tabitha!
Loved your poem, Holly! ❤
So many fabulous fictional witches to choose from!
ReplyDeleteSome of my favorites have been mentioned above.
I spent Saturday mornings with Witchipoo and HR PufnStuf
Oh my goodness me....elephant, elephant is the absolutely cutest. I love the background rollers. I did that one time when I was teaching.....a million years ago. Your poem was so very cute.....yes it would be a shame to separate besties. I know that you will know my answer about favorite witch before I even tap the keys.....the bad greenie from Oz. She is so good at what she does.....melting, melting.
ReplyDeleteGood TV choice, loved Aunt Clara....I grew up to be Aunt Clara at times.
Thanks for the fun, xoxo Oma Linda
Dovima with the elephants? That's just a gorgeous bit of work there. And yes, I admit, Bewitched had the first witch I ever had a crush on. I've actually never seen the polka dot elephant episode, for which I feel a little sad about. A wonderful post, full of wonderful things!
ReplyDeleteI love that song. And now I have it stuck in my head again. Sounds kind of hollow in there.
ReplyDeleteLove that polka dot elephant(do you think my son would notice if I dyed his dalmatian purple?)
ReplyDeleteYou verse is such fun too....I now have a head full of conjoined animals lol :D XXX
You dear, wonderful thing! You put elephants with conjoined twins and witches! I am your fan for ever more!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite witch? Mommy Fortuna from 'The Last Unicorn". She's gratifyingly wicked!
My favorite would have to be Serena, Samantha's cousin on Bewitched. I just loved how Elizabeth portrayed that saucy, raven-haired... I'm sorry, what was the question? lol

Probably my favorite witch is Mona Mayfair from Anne Rice's "Lives of the Mayfair Witches" trilogy and the last two entries to her "Vampire Chronicles," not counting the all new "Prince Lestat." A Happy Halloween to you, Holly.
