Exquisite Suzette and Her Faerie Ways
Light footed faeries in subtle tans accompany Suzette.
Subtly playing Mozart-like melodies on their flutes.
Two playing cards, on the rim of her bonnet, giggling.
Blue butterflies with lacy edges are drawn to her face
To take a peek at the azure eyes they have read about
in the spiritual prophecy of the butterfly realm.
Suzette is totally exquisite from her pretty hands to her eyes.
The daisies titter with pure joy, so glad to be a part of this moment.
Could I have a peek? Sunflower asks, approaching with awe.
She is magnificent! The petite perfect roses whisper. Perfect.
A master gardener, who looks so much like her sainted grandmother.
We will show her the way.
Suzette’s soul begins to sing; she feels an affinity here, in the garden.
Her grandmother catches up with her. Have the faeries shown you the way?
The faeries giggle, and Suzette hears them for the first time.
