Olivetta Loved Orange

Orange was Olivetta’s favorite summertime holiday fruit
The smell of this sweet morsel delighted this fairy
She also adored marigolds’ spotted colors of orange to their root
All the oranges In the orchard made her life brilliantly airy

So when she received a new fairy habitat, she knew what to do
She brought in pinks, yellows, polka dot, plaids, florals and blue.
But the main color was orange in full large paint strokes of course.
She designed an orange bathtub and a giant fluffy stuffed orange horse.

She was flabbergasted to find a male fairy one fine Tuesday.
With carrot-colored hair of all things, so she swiftly sashayed
She tucked him in her home, where she was keeping him to play
He quickly turned into a beautiful monarch and flew swiftly away

I guess Olivetta's 'male interest' was winging it. Cute write! :) gw

Often I can read your long lines, knowing that you fill my heart with colors, full large paint strokes. Fairies, flowers, polka dots! <3 These things make me happy inside! Thank you!

Thank you Kim. Being an artist, and a painter, you would not believe how much color surrounds us here!
