Faerie Queen Assignment For Me

She was an ordinary forest until she wasn’t. I did not see her most magical tree until I was deep inside her oaks This glistening twinkly dazzling bright-lighted tree was next to the water I crept up quietly not realizing faeries were all over her leaves. Her forest’s foremost faerie queen had been expecting me. She allowed her subjects to keep their lights glowing I could see who she was protecting when I got closer and saw the faeries. I am getting weak, she confided. You must help select the next faerie queen. Me! I am a mere human! I know nothing about such matters. You have been chosen, she assured me, thus, I began interviewing. I selected the one who seemed the most kind; and she appeared satisfied. She disappeared before my eyes, and a crown appeared on the chosen one’s head. The forest suddenly got even quieter, which I did not know was possible. Glistening faerie tree lit my way out for a bit, but then the lights disappeared. I never found this magical forest again; but I guess I found it when I was meant to. For I have felt uplifted and overjoyed ever since, honored by forest faeries.

Karen, this would fit in nicely in a children's poetry book! It would have an immediate appeal to children's imagination. / M

I am so ready to get rid of this "haha" real world and live among the other faeries. Thanks Kim.
