Fairy of the Forest

Fairy of the Forest

Fairy of the Forest on a mossy stone
Casts her magical spells
From atop her wondrous throne
Daily she sends helpers winging through the dells                                             
From evening tide until  the morning’s bells

In the spirit of  beauty and truth she rules
surrounded by secrets she rarely reveals
She orchestrates leaf and flower renewals
From the  highest of treetops, to ferns she heals,
while creatures from prying eyes she conceals

Her dress is fashioned from bluebell petals
Her wings  from  gossamer tightly woven
Her chants  from deepest earth’s espousals
Decrees and  rules from a  rainbow’s  haven
We  revere this leaf- green forest maven
