A Few Fairy Facts

Fairies too get thirsty
And one just might come to sup
And linger for a moment at
Inviting nectar cup.

If it happens you should see her
Do not take the time to blink
For a fairy though she's tiny
Is much faster than you think.

She resembles a small hummer
As she dips and darts on high
Or perhaps you could mistake her for
A lovely butterfly.

If you think your eyes deceive you
Then a secret I will tell.
You must listen for the tinkle of
Her minute fairy bell.

When you hear her bell I warn you
Do not dare to look away
For fantastic, friendly fairies
Do not visit every day.

Joyce,

So charming. It reminds me of the Fairy Store that I used to have when I was a little girl.  There are children in my life and I will be sure to share this one with them (with your permission).

Love,
Alison

Dear Joyce,

This is very good writing.  You paint these tiny creatures in a good light.

Love Bobby

Delightful fairy facts from a "fantastic, friendly" fairy! ~ and as the old adage goes, "It takes one to know one!"

You truly are adorable! ~ and your young spirit will keep you forever young!

Love and fairy huggles,
Linda

Whenever I've heard that tinkle it's been the ice-cream man, which is just as delightful but not nearly so magical. Thank you for sharing.
