The Magic and Wisdom of Baba Yaga

She is the crone who dwells in the woods
She is the rider of the mortar and pestle
She is the owner of the hut on chicken legs
She is the Baba Yaga of the nettle

She is the witch who knows all the spells
She is the collector of the skulls and bones
She is the eater of the children and fools
She is the Baba Yaga of the stones

She is the wise woman who gives advice
She is the helper of the brave and kind
She is the guardian of the secrets and herbs
She is the Baba Yaga of the mind

She is the goddess of the wild and free
She is the shapeshifter of the animals and birds
She is the lover of the moon and stars
She is the Baba Yaga of the words
