Fairy Blood
Forest fairies fly the righteous path
When the sun kissed leaves transform at last
Turning shimmering shades of red like wrath
As fairy blood reveals the past
Of countless summers gone too soon
And dropping deep in earth and time
The wildflowers turning to the moon
Drinking in the nighttime wine
Fairy blood thus stink the air
On the rising of the first whole moon
Alas with rotting flesh so fair
Red to rust and orange fume
It crumbles up the forest light
Turning the leaves to dust tonight
