She sits near the water’s edge,
to let the sun warm her thoughts…
She uses her power of dreaming
in the cave of the ancient ones,
until her warmth spreads out
across the oceans and seas,
in hopes it will find us all…
The Wintur Faery
dances among the branches.
Slowly she falls into a deep sleep,
under a blanket of snow…
Her sisters: Sprieng, Sumhur & Fahl
will carry out her work,
until the snow falls again.
The cycle never ending,
She awakens…
Peace and contentment are felt
with the blowing of the snow,
She perches and tilts her head,
lifting her multicolored wings…
This winged cat of wisdom
remembers many ancient tales,
from a thousand different places…
She catches our glance
with her blue green eyes…
and leaves us wondering,
Why the red floating crystals…
As flowers bloom everywhere,
continuing the cycle of life…
the Faery waits patiently by the cradle.
Her sister fae sprinkle faerie dust
on the hand woven blanket with love.
A mobile hangs from the branches
of the Moon, the Stars & the Sun…
Expressing what we all want for our
offspring, but we can not give…
Not to worry… this new Mom
daydreams of the nearing birth.
She wears a small Celtic bracelet
with a very, very special Key.
It dangles from her wrist,
representing what all parents can
teach by loving their children,
the Key to a long & healthy life…
A kiss on the nose
on an enchanted Summer’s eve,
the unicorn beams in delight
from the love that is felt
from his companion & friend,
a fair haired Celtic Faery…
With a glance to the left,
among the branches & trees,
spot the golden green dragon
as she perches to see,
if the kinship with the fae
will be shared with her…
Before another moment passes,
she climbs higher & higher…
whispering to the Faery
pick me, pick me…
The Faery loves them both,
she loves all enchanted animals,
but the unicorn will not budge…
Poor little dragon, she must wait
her turn to be petted…
Stumble it!
