Upon a Bed of Petals

Upon a bed of petals,
The orphaned fairy slept,
And friendly woodland creatures
Were silent as they crept,
So careful not to wake her,
Recalling how she’d wept…

For Gail’s Bed of Petals contest

David Williams Date: 4/7/2013 9:41:00 AM jack, I like this a lot but I think you could turn this into a longer poem, it sort of reads as there is a lot more to tell, still like it though, good luck...David Login to Reply
