Clean Sweep
Three witches bought new brooms which promptly swept away the gloom that lurked in all their rooms, removing ancient cobwebs and grey dust. The witches wept, fumed and fussed. Evil left. ·······  ······· |

Hey Sue,
I haven't seen a tetracty in such a very long time. This one is so fitting for the holiday coming. I also enjoyed the flip how it starts as what I expected as a Halloween howler... and what you did was twist the midpoint to a sweeping away of ill will and halloween horrors... I liked the twist on this one! Hugs and Happy Halloween....

I also enjoyed this one very much.
 I am afraid though that Sue may not respond, she's been offline since April and her email addy is no longer valid... Perhas she will be back? ······· ·······"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door.
