A children's story-poem. This will be continued.

 



 

Summons From the Faerie Queen

It was late at night 
Perhaps a little past midnight 
When arrived at last to my quinsy little house 
And unexpectedly I was greeted by my friend The Mouse. 

He looked so delighted to see me once more after a long day again 
He told me I have an important message from the Queen and her counsel-men 
It seems there was something for me to share with all the fairies, leprechauns and gnomes 
Dwarves, half-lings, trolls, elves, pixies and dragons too for a better way to teach the children from Fairyland their ABC. 

The Fairy Queen was concerned and worry of late, 
It seems in Fairyland they were not enough teacher candidates 
To teach our Fairy Children all over the land how to read 
She had noticed that parents were just too busy, about this they all agreed. 

So, she's now organizing an emergency meeting for all in Fairyland to attend as soon as possible 
She realizes that this and other problems cannot be by her anymore acceptable 
A meeting is to take place after she has consulted it by tomorrow with me 
Everybody is invited by the Fairy Queen herself to come to the Fairy Ball Auditorium. 

The Queen is planning it seems a most wonderful Fairy Ball after her council with me its over 
So honored I am to be invited by the Fairy Queen herself as I always have been 
After all I am Nindo, King of the Forest Gnomes and her Royal Adviser and most devoted royal friend. 
Its clear that I am expected anyway by royal duty and command to this party to attend. 

So I better let you go and say here my goodnight to you since I got so much to do now 
I am sending back right away a Thank You to the Queen with a letter of you know-how 
With all this carry-on and excitement I am just looking forward to a goodnight sleep 
Tomorrow at break down I shall see again my Fairy Queen and for Fairyland our cares to keep. 

Off I am going now for a wonderful night rest 
I want to look better tomorrow, to be my best! 
So happy I am to live here in this enchanting place we all called Fairyland 
So close to nature with all my Little People and with the beautiful Fairy Queen that to us all here commands.
