Gorgeous Grass Faerie Saves Momo Mouse

Gorgeous Grass Faerie was sent to soothe the little fellow. He was lost in the bowels of the jungle with snakes of yellow. His sniffles were heard by elves, faeries, owls and a gnome. He was lost, for he had wandered rather far from his home. The first thing we need to do is give him food the faerie said. She gathered some strawberries that were magnificently red. She brought them to him and coaxed him into trying a bite. He was shy, but he looked up and lost a bit of his enormous fright. We will take care of you until your mother finds you, she said. Do not worry, nothing will harm you. The owl will not make you dead. The owl heard this and agreed, going back to sleep with a wink. He never ate up baby mice, their tummies were disgustingly pink. Momo Mouse’s magnificent mama found him about an hour later. She had been frantic, for he had fallen off an oak tree’s open elevator. I saw you tumbling, but I lost sight of you in the weeds, my son. She was grateful for everything Grass Faerie and her friends had done.

During the second stanza I came to love that little baby mouse, and I was so happy when his mama found him. I am always so saddened when a baby bird falls out of the nest and I find it on the ground
