~*FaerieTale*~ ~*Marge Tindal*~ With auburn tresses spun in curl dances a faeried green-eyed girl Lazied daisies hold her fair this girl of the auburn hair Spinning tales of merriment spreading love so Heaven sent Laughter plays from deep within Tiptoeing lightly about the glen Ducking in and out with delight this auburn-haired faerie sprite Wings a'flutter whispers sighs caught in a moment of surprise Should you venture into the glen you'll surely catch this faeried friend As you sit in the quietude of night upon your shoulder she will light Whispering faerie of auburned tress holds your heart in sweet caress Feeling like you've just met fate What a difference faeries make * For Corinne ... for her inspiration ! * *For believing in me* ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

A magical poem sprinkled with faerie dust. wonderful. Is the cute faerie hoovering on the screen seeing anyone? I don't care if she she is only 8 inchs tall. lol ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "Libraries gave us power Then work came and made us free What price now for a shallow piece of dignity" Nicky Wire, A design for Life. manic street preachers "Outside open mouthed crowds Pass each other as if they're drugged Down pale corridors of routine Where life falls unatoned " "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. |

Marge -- This is fantastic! Brings back girlhood dreams of Tinkerbell and all the lovely things that only a child-like heart can dream up. Thanks for a lovely, enchanting read! "That man has shown himself great who has never grieved in evil days and never bewailed his destiny." --Seneca |

You never stop amazing me Marge... Really loved this one, It had an old Irish ring to it I think. The rythm is nice, and your choice of words lifts it even higher... Waiting for the next one allready... -nando- Ask me how to live your life, and this to you I´ll say: make your choises true and wise, so that when tomorrow will arise, you´ll smile at yesterday... |

TennesseeAngel~ Ahhhhhhh ! There is magic in the heart of a child - and grownups who still believe. Thanking you for your sweet response. Kit~ We flit amongst the faeries as delightful thoughts take wing. Thank you for your always kind replies. Nando~ Ah, yes ! The Irish touch of faerie kiss, softened on the wings of bliss. I hope I can deliver more to please you. Thank you for the response. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Ah, such light and lovely beauty Marge...this is gorgeous work indeed. *Krista Knutson* "Cherish your vision; Cherish your ideals; Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts.
