A Few Fairy Facts

Fairies too get thirsty
And one just might come to sup
And linger for a moment at
Inviting nectar cup.

If it happens you should see her
Do not take the time to blink
For a fairy though she's tiny
Is must faster than you think.

She resembles a small hummer
As she dips and darts on high
Or perhaps you could mistake her for 
A lovely butterfly.

If you think your eyes deceive you
Then a secret I will tell
You must listen for the tinkle of
Her minute fairy bell.

When you hear her bell I warn you
Do not dare to look away
For fantastic friendly fairies
Do not visit every day.

A charming approach to the fantasy contest, Joyce! I can understand mistaking them for hummingbirds or butterflies. Very imaginative! Best wishes in this contest, Joyce. (And you write GREAT limericks!) Love, Carolyn
