they are always three

The following is my response to the visual prompt at Magpie Tales, #49. Follow the link and read the responses of other writers.

Three sisters,
three fates.
three witches,
bell, book, candle:

each carries a wish,
a separate wisdom,
a special gift,
or warning.

They surround, confound.
They are mystery and history.
And we always
invite them in.
