maybe the witch was wrong!

by Rabbitt

maybe the witch was wrong!

when my Grandmother gave birth
both my Mom and I were born
an egg in Mom's tiny girth
from the time her cord was torn

really older than I look
or maybe not eggsactly
other half still on the hook
till things were satisfactory

likewise, by the same token
I watched the ages go by
since God's word was first spoken-
I was a tear in God's eye

an egg in God's womb was I
so, that makes me very old-
now why would a white witch sigh
and call me such a young soul?

did she study me someplace
and decide I was an a-soul
with broken eggs on my face-
before I got old and whole?

maybe the witch was wrong!
