Short Pixies Poems

Inspirations come
When the pretty pixies hum
While humans succumb...

Pixies in the fields
not fairies from the skies,
Turn sunflowers facing East
with well-trained fireflies!...

magical night sky
aurora borealis
closest to heaven
gods light show
native to greenland
faeries and pixies...

Pixies hover lily to lily
a frog croaks nearby
fireflies illuminate like lanterns
in the dawn of the night sky...

you have a boo boo?
May pixies sprinkle it with kindness
Divorce in the family?
I shall send in the gnomes.
Family death?
nurturing leprechauns better bring more than gold....

Fanciful dragon had fool for a pet.
Carries his breakfast each day, and it’s wet.
Licked on by six pixies.
He could easily fix these.
Certainly has not thought of decking them yet....

Rain on a metal roof:
a host of pixies in a race,
their horses join a merry chase
with little, tiny hoofs
that never seem to leave a trace…
Alas, I have no proof!

witches and warlocks
gypsies and thieves
imagination
brings likes of these

pirates and pixies
bring in the sheaves
unicorn sandwich
cucumbers please

dragons and hoot owls
running from bees
witches and warlocks
gypsies and thieves...

free your mind from old chains,  
  fetch me all nine muses,
    focus on mages, dwarves,
      fairies, elves and pixies,
        find me magic potions,
          fabled tales surprises,
              fiction must reign supreme.

Watching the sunlight shatter
and regroup to sliver again
in refractory bliss across the bay
evening shadows lengthen
and the kaleidoscope pixies
play across my eyes
while the silent hiss of suns' set
under rose and lavender skies
etches my life....

Oh, prepare ye prancing pixies
Ignite the fireflies
reveal to us in moonlight
What in the soil abides
Awake the buds
Call forth their blooms
Conduct the feathered choir
As in the hum of nature’s womb
May’s dreams of life conspire

Two pixies dressed in October clothes
Were dancing on wings of an autumn leaf
Their lively footwear was fun to watch
Neither seemed concerned we were there

Twirling and whirling, on tippy toes
They showed off their dance moves
As the elm leaf floated to the ground
Where they would safely dismount...

The mossy path entices me
To the place where faeries dance 
And pixies cavort,
Where dozens of bejeweled butterflies are whirling,
Dipping then soaring then bowing down 
Around a single golden mushroom
Until millions of it's sparkling spores are released
Into the filtered light of spring's blue moon....

Night time elves were lured out of crevices and caves,
Hearing the melodic pipe of the Moon Beam King.
Charismatic, he also pulled pixies out of shallow graves.
See those three faeries dancing around the tree ring?
They were brought to the mystical place to sing.
Moon Beam King gets away with it. He is one of fey’s faves....

when i was young and five
i had a dream of the boogyman
of cyclops
one eye watching me
and dragons breathing fire
of little elves dancing
with fairies in tights
and pixies in flight
ghost and goblins
mermaids and jack the giant
spooks going bunp in the night
when i was young and five
these creatures really gave me a scare!...

Was walking-  s e a r c h i n g  for  DEEP  green clover,
when ROWDY  b a w d y  pixies flew  o v e r.

One said, she was a Colleen,
or was that name said, Irene!

"LISTEN UP  g i r l i e ,  THIS  is  OUR  c l o v e r !"

Unicorn dreams surrounded his mind
He was a docile man, caring and kind.

Pixies and dervish were chased away.
This was a sweet soul, Mr. La Cray.

Pink angels were called to give him some grace
Saint Peter met him with an impulsive embrace

Rainbows appeared and someone played a harp.
He had a gentle soul and was empathetically sharp....

I`ve seen them dance with Dodos at dawn
and slide down curves of a mammoth's tusk
to swim in the midst of creation`s spawn,
then define the gloaming and name it dusk.

I`ve seen them skate on the scalp of pluto
and confirm that saturn's rings are of ice;
then suspect all planets like games of Cluedo:
The who dunnit query of who made life?...

Spider's Silk

Stealthily and silently, the spider waits,
For its well-deserved prey.

In its web it sits and creates,
A figure that'll sway and sway.

But when the right time comes for a spider to rest,
When it's completely, only for the best;

The pixies and elves come out to play,
As if the dawn of a new day.

ottava rima

Just hear that mighty storm cloud boast
as flowers climb the garden wall.
Without my rain, you gnomes would roast;
the soil would quickly harden, y'all;
Vines, fairies, pixies, you'd be toast.
~~
Let's party and we'll honor Sol
cause garden's little folk know growth
depends on rain and sunshine both.

I will talk to dragons, pixies and faeries.
I will follow elves down paths of fantasy.
I will not be afraid of trolls under the bridge.
I will not be afraid of goblins over the ridge.
I will live free from the constraints of gravity.

Silhouettes dancing in the trees 
A closer look and what do I see 
Pixies dancing on the breeze 
Fairies surfing on falling leaves 
Gnomes having tea in evergreens 
Elves carrying their princess queen 
Leprechauns making shoes in trees 
Sprites bathing in dew filled leaves 
Childhood imaginations or adult dreams 
May dancing silhouettes fill your dreams...

Mushroom houses built along mystical mile
with the scent of Northern Scotch Pine
Pixies and elves slide in with a grateful smile
Dancing and twirling, frolicking in a fancy line!

Mice and baby bunnies scamper up hill and about
Spring prances up and down in an exciting way
Daffodils give their most cheerful May shout
It is going to be a fantastic time for the fey!...

Gnarly exposed tree roots 
Sheltering the fey
Pops of purple violets
With dash of yellow
Adorning in quiet ways

Mischievous forest pixies
Prancing in silence
Discover this oak is hollow
Build an apartment house
Using twigs, grass, and mud.

Wood elves join them
Led by cosmic faeries
All bearing gifts for neighbors
Rugs, toasters, beds,
Ethereal celebration in oak tree heights...

They soar through space-scapes of
divine milky whorls and blue halos;
incandescent dandelion wishes
blown across nocturnal fields -
illuminating the imaginative expanse 

between eternities of cosmic dark ages and light years
are fiery pixies burning holes through obscurity
with passionate gold dust gilding awe -

souls arising fulfill their destinies
