Beryl Edmonds Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Written 11th December 2023

Nursery Rhymes or Stories Poetry Contest

Sponsored by: Eve Roper

Fairy Dresses

Wondering how fairies obtain dresses?
It's because they have fairy seamstresses
Sewing with pine needles and spidery
Gathered from spiders fine web filigree.

Pretty petals for fabric, leaves for shoes
Smelling of sweet fragrant floral perfume
Flowers to adorn their flowing tresses
Crystal star droplets sown into dresses.

Gossamer to turn into fairy wings
So fairies may fly in sky, revelling
Sprinkles of fairy dust, a wand for luck
When all dressed up, so pretty fairies look.

When you find fairies in a fairy glade
Recall how their lustrous outfits are made.

Brandy Nicole December 17, 2023 at 5:25 PM Sweet Belle, in the magical world, fairies are able to flutter from cloud to cloud; and I find that mysterious and captivating, all at the same time. They wear gowns that have been sprinkled in pixie dust, which causes them to drift with elegance and grace. Your thoughts take me to the stars. :) Congratulations my dear friend, on Poem of the Week. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy Beryl Edmonds December 17, 2023 at 5:33 PM Thank you for your lovely reply Brandy, I find fairies mysterious and captivating too, as little girls do and old gals too. :) Hugs in return, Belle
