Fruit Fairies

Fruit Fairies

Green luscious trees sway gracefully in breeze 
humming song sung by work pollen bees
baby fruits cradled not yet ripen to fall
many are ready but some still too small

     
Laden with fruit rich, juicy and ripe
natures jewels sparkling delights
oranges, plums, pears, apples galore
once tasted you will always want more


Raspberries, strawberries and currants of blue
beautiful colours all natural and true
blackberries, apricots, gooseberries green
melons and mangoes even tangerines


Lemons so bright bed lights to be seen
fruit fairies dancing among all the green
they are the guardians who nurture them all
working and caring protectors when called


Unicorn sprinkles star dust they apply
diamonds drop dews, rain from the sky
foods for the fruits all natural and clean
no chemicals be used, always grown green


As dusk draws in, their wings tired and slow
fireflies wake lights delicately glows 
lay rest their heads on white cotton to sleep
eyes tiredly shut no fairy does peep


Fruit salad, fruit medley bring such harmony
all healthy when eaten moderately
so children when mum and dad say this be true
fruit fairies grew these especially for you


If you hear little laughter or feel tickle of air
know that a fairy is very near
happy, smiling, flying with glee
healthy our children - earth future trustees

                                                                 29.08.20

Hello Emilia … I don’t how people survive that don’t eat ample fruit and vegetables but are addicted to salt, sugar, and fat filled fast food. Thanks for your mouth watering poem Emilia - Lindsay

Hello Lindsay and thank you. I agree with you, I am no saint but do try to limit the bad as an occasional treat though chocolate can be my downfall at times lol, Emilia : )
