Fairy Glen There’s a place deep in the woodlands that’s known as Fairy Glen It’s shrouded in a mystic fog so no one ventures in And anyone who finds their way into this wondrous place Just won't believe the beauty of the things that they will face Beside a waterfall there flows a clear enchanted pool Where graceful mermaids swim within the waters deep and cool The tiny people travel here whene’er the moon is right To gather with each other on a warm and magic night The elves and fairies all hold hands to frolic and to dance While pixies ride on fireflies as unicorns will prance Leprechauns turn cartwheels on the soft and soothing grass Then move aside so little bands of marching gnomes can pass The wee folk share their charms and spells until the break of day Then one by one they’ll turn to mist and gently fade away But when the moon is right and it is time to meet again They’ll all be back to gather in the woods at Fairy Glen |

Oh, Stephen, this is truly enchanting. That's some gathering the child within me wouldn't want to miss! Such beautiful verses deserve to be published, for small and grown-up children. Tell us when this will be done. ... I am the one doing somersaults down the lotus petals ... see! Just wonderful! Love, Margherita |

What a wonderful break you gave me from the harshness of the world! You HAVE to have Irish blood in your veins! You do, don't you? - Owl |

Your words chase away all the evils of the world, Stephen and allow us to be children again. I agree, that your work should be published ( and of course he has to have a bit of Irish in him, Owl)or how would he know about the Fairy Glen?

Owl, I'm a soup hound, I've got little bit of everything in me so I'm sure there's some Irish in there somewhere. Take care and Have fun. Steve |

Ida, the wee folk would be glad to have you join them at the next get together. Most of my little stories are published in my first book but I've thought about a book just for the fantasy stuff. Maybe when I get a little more time. Take care and Have fun. Steve |
