Ariana the Bright

Ariana the faerie, brings light to the plants; you may find her in your garden, implanting nutrients. She draws down the sunlight, right into the ground; The plants would not grow, without Ariana around. This faerie of light, fears the darkness, you see; there are many things lurking, among the old trees. A hungry wild beast or an evil old troll; faeries, you see, are not very bold. They don’t like to be seen, they will try to hide; from roaming eyes, of sneaky young spies. Some children will see them, those kind of heart; faeries will bless them, their beauty to impart. If you, an adult, were to see her out there; she’d quickly disappear, without any care. Humans aren’t supposed to know that faeries exist; It’s easier for them, to live their true bliss. Ariana is covered, in great nutrients; she channels them daily, right into the plants. With wings like a butterfly, she goes, plant-to-plant; stopping only, to pet the head, of the occasional ant. If you were to see her, you’d probably blink; for human logic, would have them, extinct. There are things in this world, humans should never know; but, those lights in your garden, are called, faerie-glow.

This is why adults do not see us. "If you, an adult, were to see her out there; she’d quickly disappear, without any care." Thanks for outing us!

Haha, well, we spot them all of the time! We just don't always realize it's a fairy. Thanks.
