Pixie's Spell

On a lustrous November night
Along each gliding  way;
The thrill of the season beckoned
Into the woods that day--
Where in the hush so intricate
That pulsated lithesome yet clear,
I heard a mild voice singing 
Which only those attuned may hear-
A jingle through the pewter leaves
A quiver through the boughs ..

Until a male fey drifted by
My, was it really so
Or did some magic enthrall me?
I'll really never know ...

Hello my signs are Aquarius and Pisces both are water signs. I find by being by the water any type of water relaxing. like a pond, stream, waterfall ocean, lake. I have a photo of a dock in water I often picture myself there. I can vision this gentle spirit in the woods. Enjoyed. have a nice evening my friend.

what a pretty depiction of this pixie, Nette!! I like how you made it just the right length also. Mine is way too long! By the way, what did you mean by PM? Did you sent me a soupmail or hotmail or something? I only got that last one of yours that I responded to here at soup a few days ago. I'll go soupmail you my email in case you don't have it.

Nette.. Even in a fairy tale write your gifted and extended vocabulary is on display and your complex big picture surmise. Love the close with that classic line. This will be at the top for the contest winners I'm sure!
