Saw Nothing
a handsome autumn brownie strutted confidently out of the oaks.
We human begins stopped talking, ceased all stories and jokes.
a dwarf like faerie gave him a wink, and an all-knowing eye.
I swear I also heard a teensy “ahhhh” faerie sigh.
In a few seconds they had both disappeared in a bit of smoke.
Did you see that? I asked my friends My, Tiny and Loke.
“Saw nothing” they said, faster than I could make up this lie.
They would not admit to seeing the fey, especially My.
