Fairies Dance and Fortune Smiles
Fairies Dance and Fortune Smiles
I have seen the forest fairies dancing in the morning dew
dressed in silver and gold two by shining two
Sounds of Nature playing that beautiful magic dancing tune
in singing tribute to the wonder of previous night's moon
I have seen the majestic glory of a lover's moon at night
so beautiful impossible to describe by mere words I write
Nights so fine that life begged for time to stand still
stay the course, fight the fight , to find destined will
I have felt the pain of crashing and crushing total defeat!
in life and love pick carefully the ripe fruits you eat
For life's choices are sweet but often laced with thorns
and evil cruelties that even make the good fairies mourn
I have travelled a journey guided by a much greater spirit
blinded by weakness , lusts so deafening I couldn't hear it
Yet the gentle mercies given me can be blessedly gifted to you
your great call, your life and fortunately you get to choose!

Many gifts were tossed upon my path. I never knew why. Perhaps my
father's prayers came true . I got blessings so many of which I was
never truly due! Week before he died he prayed for not himself but
rather for happy lives for his 11 kids!!
I suspect I most of all.
