Explaining That You Are Pagan To Your Parents Views:
The best way to hide Wicca from your parents is to not have any items related to the religion out in your room. However, it may be best to speak to the parents and let them know so that you can openly practice the religion.
Becoming Pagan/Wiccan is like becoming any faith, I am sure you did not undertake this without careful consideration.
If you are a minor, your parents may try to have a say in your choice of spiritual path. They may try to change your mind or "forbid" you to practice your spiritual path. If they do it is most likely out of genuine concern for you and a general lack of knowledge about your choice.
If you are an adult, they have little or no input into your decisions, but it will make things easier in future, if they understand your choice.
In either case, I recommend complete openness and respect. Do your homework, tell them what it is about Paganism/Wicca that draws you to it. Let them read some of the books available.
I recommend "When Someone You Love Is Wiccan" by Carl McColman.
Also, it wouldn't hurt to let them know that you are still the kind, loving, caring, ethical person they raised you to be.
I have heard nothing bad regarding the nature or reputation of modern paganism, and commend you on making a decision to follow you own feelings on this matter. It is not that I believe that modern paganism is the right religion above all others, just that it obviously meets your spiritual needs better than some more well-known faiths. I see no reason to ridicule your beliefs. As to culpability by association, you can be assured that the ancient pagan religions were worthy, evidenced by the fact that some of their adherents were people of the highest moral principles.
Certainly, it is hard to give useful advice without knowing how liberal your parents are or whether you still live at home. At most, we can say, choose a time and place where you are all comfortable and can discuss this without undue distractions. Perhaps sound your parents out first by talking about their religion and point out that you respect their beliefs but may not follow the same path.

No, I would guess that most are not. And of the ones that claim to be, many are probably just trying to annoy their parents and do not truly follow the religion. Wicca teaches a positive outlook on life, so depressed emos don't really fit the idea of a Wiccan. Those who claim to take on the Wiccan lifestyle are often following a trend.

There is no such thing as a "Wiccan poem". If you have a Wiccan friend, you could ask them to write one specifically for you.
