The Fairies

Drinking dew drops
           under the light of the moon
Gathering sweet nectar
            from flowers in bloom
Like sparks of light that glitter at night
             tiny colorful fairies a pure delight
From her open window the little girl sees
              dancing fairies a sight she's pleased
Charming fairies gliding in the breeze
                hear them giggle what a tease
Twilight brought them to the garden to play
                 here until the dawn of day
The green fairy fades into the trees
                  sniffing a dandelion the red one sneezed
So many colors yet they blend
                   with the flowers they sit in
At her open window the little girl spies
                    watching fairies with butterflies fly
But her hiccup ends her delight
                      frighten fairies scurry off in flight
Little girl feeling blue goes to bed
                       dreams of fairies fill her sleepy head
The white fairy shines signal bright
                         the fairies return for their garden night.
