A chapter in the book Steve's Poems for Kids
Fairy Playground
by kiwisteveh
In the forest, 'neath the trees
Where fairies ride on bumble-bees, Sparkling gems and gleaming gold Lie hidden in a toadstool's fold. Little folk with shining wings Frolic through the magic rings And peals of laughter fill the glade From tinkling voices unafraid. Here romps Puck with all his wiles And green-clad imps with cheeky smiles, While elfin faces slyly peek In hectic games of hide and seek. Naiads slide down rainbow beams To mossy banks near crystal streams, Where dancing droplets sweetly shower Bluebell blooms and foxglove flower. Gentle zephyrs, soft as sighs, Or gossamer wings of dragonflies, Stir petals laced with soft perfumes From myriads of scented blooms. On blushing buds of rambling rose, Sprites cavort with twinkling toes, As lissome ladies, agile men, Caper through the darkling glen. Now the daylight starts to fade, As Sirens softly serenade. Pixie people dance and shimmer In radiance of moonbeams' glimmer. Midnight calls, the witching hour, A change comes on the fairy bower; With silvery shards the forest gleams, And spirits all, drift off to dreams. |
