Faerie Does Not Want Presidency

Faerie did not want to be president of the meadow of Zee.
He said, “anyone else please, public office is not for me.”
The frog wanted the honor. Absolutely not! Yelled the bee.
The mushrooms were not voting, they are neutral, you see.
The daisies liked the spider and suggested everyone vote for her.
The fly said “Are you crazy? That old reprobate is about to eat me!”
They held an election after Ms. Persnickety’s afternoon tea.
Unfortunately, it was a landslide. Everyone voted for the reluctant faerie.
