Little Woodsey Nimpkins ~*Marge Tindal*~  If you go out in the Woodsey Forest, don't be surprised to see Tiny little Faerie Twinkle, catching fireflies for thee Putting little fireflies in such teensy jars making tiny little lanterns to spread the light afar~ 'Neath the mushroom caps adorn, Faerie Winkin takes a blinkin While tucked up in a tree stump, another Winkin is a'sleepin If upon the lawn at night, you see a glow on wing Rest assured that happiness is just what the Nimpkins bring~ Wee little Sprites have merriment to sprinkle Across your night in sheer delight here comes a Faerie Twinkle~ Woodsey Nimpkins Faerie artwork by my high school friend June Somerford Williamson Copyright 1998-2002 ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

This is absolutely beautiful. *S* The poem and the artwork are both lovely... I want to find that forest and join the napping Winkin... then hug the whole bunch. *S* If the smile on my face is any indication, the Nimpkins spread merriment and happiness even during daylight hours. *S* Wonderful! |

Marge, this is an enchanting picture and it must be wonderful to have a source of inspiration from someone you know personally. Your words capture the feeling and magic of the illustration very well. A very well done symbiosis of picture and words. Good work. Bart never try to teach a pig to sing |

Marge, this is precious...a keeper for Krista, I assure you! I love the way your mind works, you have a gift with children! (She still wants to write just like Miss Marge!) I'm a little jealous of that, yanno!  |
