Wood Fairies There Often Play

Wood Fairies There Often Play Deep in that far wooded glen was a place made for men Was not so easily found complete with Nature sound Comfort for man and beast just a mile northeast Great to rest my soul there peacefulness makes me aware Wood fairies there often play stacking rocks in my way A test to see me step aside watching from where they hide Daring to find resting sleep my soul they try to keep No malice,just a loving desire to share their eternal fire Each visit I must bid adieu with a, "so sad to leave you" My friends of the wooded glen thanks for allowing me in Always this is the sweet reply see you in the by and by You are most welcomed any time our uniting is most sublime Each Spring my trek begins to again see my little friends As I slowly walk my way in I marvel at this far wooded glen Robert J.
