Poem
Nattie and Thomas had left home In search of the magic Portal, And there find: Vilenist, a song, Faerie dust--to save the mortals. "There it is, Nattie! I can see it!" Screamed Thomas with so much delight, Not seeing the stream, fell in it. "You can swim when everything's right!" Scolded Nattie, "But now, let's go!" Then she helped Thomas from the cool stream. They followed the path to the glow From the Portal refracting beam. "Okay. This is it...you ready?" "Yes, Nattie. She needs us! Let's jump!" Jump they did. But, not quite steady Landing on a toadstool...KER--THUMP! "Ouch! Get off my head!", cried Toadstool. "Why don't you watch where you're going?" Scuff'ling to their feet--Nattie, cool-- Said, "We're sorry! No need blowing! "We didn't mean to land on you." "Well...all right then...Am I bleeding?!" Gigg'ling, Nattie said, "Not a bruise!" "I'm Larch Bolete! Your names...Seedling?" I'm Nattie...Thomas, my brother. And we're here to see Vilenist. Can you tell which way or other We need to go: North, South, West, East?" "Gladly my dear, but do take care. Night is coming--strange things about-- If you must go, then East is where She'll be...Your hearts must be quite stout!" With smiles and thank you, East they went. Night had come, but their path was bright. "WOW! Look, Nattie! Magnificient! Everything glows--You see this, right?" "Yes, Thomas, but do you see"--"NAT!!" Fluid rainbows--quicker than quick! Spark'ling colours--this way and that! And music that changed with each click! Before they could say one more thing, The most beautiful Rainbow Fae Was playing harmonics on strings Of her violin--that could fly! She was colours and ice crystals. She moved like the air and could change. Her hair, rainbow-streaked--a minstrel Whose music healed, saved, spoke through planes. "Nattie Grace snd Thomas, you're here! I've been expecting you, my dear. There isn't much time, but don't fear, I have what you came for quite near." Vilenist, then presented two Items: a simple box of Great Oak Wood, And a small twinkling jar of blue, With instructions, they understood. "In this box, is the song you seek. You mustn't look! You mustn't peek! To save your mortals so unique. This jar: Faerie Dust--for each cheek." She took them to the Portal base And blessed them both as they passed through With a song and faerie dust face, "Where you believe there is magic...you will find it." deborah burch© 5/27/2012 *Support Fairybox.org
