My Secret November Twinkle Fairy

Under a tree I sat enjoying the beautiful day,                   a breeze in my hair, birds singing sweetly,  
butterflies fluttering from flower to flower. 

What did I see?                                                             Are my eyes deceiving me?  

Among the brilliant fall leaves and flowers,                       a movement I see but not a leaf. 

A Twinkle Fairy could it be?                                             no, they are only in stories you read.  

I must have dosed off,                                                   was I dreaming or was it all real?                              

As I walked away I turned for one last look at the brilliant fall leaves and flowers,                      
a little Twinkle Fairy was waving back at me.

Lady Labyrinth November 4, 2019 at 4:34 PM Beautiful. Reminds me of that story, about the two little girls in Yorkshire, England who photographed fairies, "The Cottingley Fairies". Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (writer, Sherlock Holmes etc) believed in fairies. Harry Houdini and Sherlock Holmes enter their story to confirm / debunk the existence of the fairies photographed were real. Lady Labyrinth November 4, 2019 at 8:11 PM I think it was proven as a hoax. But Arthur Conan Doyle believed in them so much, he lost credibility with a lot of his professional peers and followers. Not that it seems to have affected the circulation and love of his stories. I do believe there are many levels of dimensions around us...you and I could be here for days talking about this subject. I find it all rather fascinating and because it's a mystery, even more so, I delve further into exploring what is meant by inter dimensions. Perhaps the afterlife is another dimension. I think I was reading somewhere there are 27 dimensions spiritually, I don't understand how they conclude that, when it is really like looking into a house of mirrors, surely never ending and no one really has the answers. In physics there are only 3 dimensions, but spiritually, there are many (this is what I believe). x Paula Goldsmith November 4, 2019 at 5:10 PM Glad you like it. Above in what you wrote, it would be great if you knew if it was a hoax or not. I do believe there are other dimensions we are not aware of. Yes, anything is possible. Lady Labyrinth November 4, 2019 at 4:37 PM Whether it was a Hoax or not, there are other dimensions we are not aware of .... anything is possible. x
