Is That a Faerie On the Forty Nine Ford

What is that creature who lingers on the ’49 Ford? Asked Boss Hog. We looked but were not sure until we saw the sniffing junk yard dog. The red car with rust? The bookkeeper asked, wondering too. Oh, yes, said Boss Hog. Is that a Faerie from the ocean blue? I can go ask her I offered, but she flittered fast and away. So I did not get to find out on that lovely October Monday. It was a faerie, the junk yard dog said. I saw her filigree wings. I thought it amazing that he could not only talk, but he sings!
