Fairy

Can you hear this enchanting melody?

it invites you deeper into the woods,

where fox and hare say goodnight,

and we can play out of sight.

Can you spot me between the trees?

my favorite game is hide and seek,

The specs of sunlight, that glisten through my auburn hair,

tell you where to look at, catch me there.

Can you smell the herbs and the musk?

my favorite perfume, heavenly delicate.

Leaving behind a trail for you to follow,

or get lost, who else would know?

Can you touch my playful fingers?

intertwine them like a riddle,

or like the thread of gold that holds my wings

letting them cling like a wind chime.

Can you feel my velvet lips?

Strikingly lusciuous, get ready to kiss.

And when you finally catch me I vanish,

you realize it all was a dream, but one you won't let disappear.
