Barbara Gorelick Poet Quatrain

A Fairy Tale

Looking like a tiny  princess
Her dress the palest blue
Gold dust falling round her
A happy giggle as  she flew

She laughed and then went flitting
Around the garden park
Resting on a toadstool
Listening to the golden lark

Her feet in rosy satin slippers
With shiny buckles too
I knew I must be dreaming
When she sipped the morning dew

All to soon the picture faded
As I heard a voice so  sweet
"Up my dear; its time for school"
Alas, my fairy dream complete............

Steven Mossburg March 17, 2010 at 8:56 AM This was fun to read. It is so light and full of color. I see I have some competition in the contest. Oh, well, maybe I'll have better luck with the next one. Good Job! : )

Carolyn Devonshire March 14, 2010 at 2:10 PM What a wonderful dream to have, Barbara! I thought you were describing Tinkerbell so having you wake up at the end was a surprise. Delightful verse that should do very well in the contest. Love from your fellow LNC, Carolyn
