Journey's Wish

I hold three magic rocks, in my hand
Rolling them over and over and over
Leaving this reality behind, far behind
Transported to the land of Fay I stand.
Standing in the midst of beautiful clover,
Every fairy smiling at me so kind,
They flittered and floated all around.
Saying words of welcome and praise.
Then just one fluttered in front of me.
Speaking in a language of beautiful sound,
She was so gorgeous, upon my gaze.
She said what wish might I grant for thee.
I thought for a few moments for my wish.
Several came to mind, just one stuck out.
The human world is corrupt and evilly kept.
I spoke my words and the Fairy went swish.
My thoughts and wish was to stay, I shout.
Here in this world of beauty, she just wept.
Granted my new fellow fairy, here you’ll play.
Poof now transformed into a Fairy with wings.
Floating and flying my heart had so much to say.
However, now I may grant wishes for many things.

Very well written fantasy. So, can you grant me a wish? :) Maybe you stayed, because of the pretty face, huh. Just kidding. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed. Caroline.

Magical write, Cecil. If only we could live in a world in which the fairy could grant our every wish. The last three lines are awesome. Would that we could all turn our wishes over to you and obtain your help in fulfilling them. You never cease to amaze me, dear friend. Outstanding work! Love, Carolyn
