Notes About The Poem

Stardust

Silly Sandee Stardust shuffled when she walked
around the garden while she talked and talked.
She said she preferred using her tiny feet
because she enjoyed sniffing the sweet
scent of red roses and striped, orange lilies,
but knew not to go near the hot pepper chilis.

Though she admired their bright color, red,
Sandee had tasted one in the garden bed.
Oh, my... I'd never seen her fly so fast
to drink buttercup dew until the burning passed. 
No one could miss seeing this faerie, so fair
because of her colorful clothing, chosen with care.

Pinks and greens were her favorite of all hues.
She wore snappy leggings of yellow and blues.
Her prismatic wardrobe highlighted her gold wings,
and everyone listens when this wee faerie sings.
Rosebuds in her hair, big brown eyes like a bug...
Sandee is a sweetheart, who gives everyone a hug.

Smashing poem, Lin. I like the chilli bit… if I ate one of those little red nukes I’d fly around the garden too. Much enjoyed. Terry

Dear Lin, your whimsical poem dances with charm and enchantment. Through the delightful character of Sandee Stardust, you create a picture of a faerie full of life and color, flitting through the garden with boundless joy. I loved the imagery of her colorful attire and fluttering wings brings a smile to the my face, while her endearing nature shines through in every line. This is a delightful tale that of the magic all around us. Blessings, Daniel
