A Fairy Fun Day

Where mountains fade to valley shade And trees give way to meadow's blade Cottony cattail, wild lilies teem Obscuring an enchanted stream Tis there amongst the grassland rue This tiny fairy village grew I will not say just where they stay And risk perchance they fly away It was by chance or happenstance We crashed a friendly fairy dance We got derailed and left the trail Looking for some swallowtails Can you imagine our surprise Fairies dancing with butterflies They welcomed us and made a fuss We danced with them and gained their trust Our day was done, we'd had our fun We said "goodbye" thanked every one Then headed back to find our trail Took home with us, this fairy tale.
