The Heavens Acquiesced

The Heavens Acquiesced 


Bubbles rose on moonbeams glow
lost fairies trapped within
held prisoner on currents flow
by liquid walls so very thin

drifting in the moon blue sky
the captives of the light
danced within the bubbles skin
gave song to silent night

rose until the light of day
obscured by horizon’s crest
shone upon fine fairie wings
as the heavens acquiesced

found joy within the glowing orbs
hanging in the dark of space
peace within the fairy songs
soft filigree of moonlight lace

so do the fairies rise to height
orbed prisons without bars
drifting in the moon blue sky
fairies become the stars

Your imagery really matches what I think Mystic Rose was portraying in her fantasy pictures, and it works! Very well written, and good luck in the contest :)
