Can Fantasy Be Real

Near a grove …just ahead of me This dream of a figure stood, With whimsy, ribbon-tinted wands And gown of crimson hue-- She was the sweet reverie of That gentle forest view: Was imagination part of this? But she had been there -- That maiden fey with a bronze crown And garlands in her hair. It can't be hallucination 'Feed your visualization'...Grandma said; So, the child in me on springtime eve-- Knew that woodland fairies hide Only from those who don't believe.

Hi Nette, Hope you're well, lovely little poem, too good to lose out if it's for the contest then you've missed out a couple of the required words. Just to let you know. Take care, Richard. Oh, I wrote one but I missed them all out lol on purpose.
