Wilhelmina's Howling Halloween Party by Terry Catasus Jennings

by Kool Cat KC on 10/27/18

Wilhelmina’s cauldron sprung a leak.

How could she brew the powerful purple potion she always prepared for her Halloween party?

Bubble gum!

Four well-chewed pieces fixed the crack.

The powerful purple potion was brewed in the blink of a bat.

Petunia tried the potion first, she gave a little shiver. It was delicious.

But soon, Petunia was higher than the trees.

Wilhelmina shrieked, Petunia had promised to play the xylophone at the party!

What to do?

Extra-long straws! A spell to raise the xylophone!

It was the most Howling Halloween party ever,

Even if it was above the trees.

Cute story. I loved 'in the blink of a bat.'

Thanks, loved it when the bat hit me in the "eye" and replaced it.

Oh the dangers of bubble gum. I too liked "in the blink of a bat." Good luck.

Always carry bubblegum I suppose! Very creative. Good luck!

It would be a great view of Halloween from above the trees. Good luck!

Quick thinking to patch the hole with chewing gum! Sounds like Wilhelmina accidentally made the potion a little strong! But all the more fun :) Thanks for joining in the halloweensie high jinx, Terry!
