Fairies Under Moonlight

Deep within the ancient woods of Ireland
There lies hidden within its floral beauty
A hidden ring of mushrooms in a vast clearing
Where the fairies come out to play
Under the night of the full moon.

They dance merrily in the moonlight
Its rays acting as a spotlight to the dancers
Illuminating their wings with its glow
Making them shine bright as the stars above.

For one to come across a Fairies Ring
Is a sight to bewilder upon seeing such wonder
Hypnotized by a bewitching display of enchantment
As one catches a rare performance of their frolics.

Yet just as the sun rises
It was now time for the moon to set
As it bids the night farewell
Signals the fairies to depart
Returning to the magic realm from which they came.

Even though they returned home
What one has seen with their eyes
The merriment and bliss of their dance
The joy and happiness they brought to the air
Brings tears to a lucky lad's eyes.
